How do I add an icon as a "window decoration" to a window that doesn't have one?
A small problem, which the grey-beards of ubuntu should not unduly stress themselves about, but which is presently of great interest to me (I have got to an age in which I have to have small problems to obsess about).
When I open a window in 10.04, that window usually comes decorated with an icon at the top of the window, on the left-side - the same icon that is used in "launchers" and in (say) an Application-menu entry. These icons are, I believe, actually called "window decorations". Most windows have them, but not all. I recently installed gpppon (a graphical interface for pon / poff connections) in my system, and although it is a pretty ancient piece of (unsupported) software, it worked out fine. But it came without an identifying menu- or window-icon. I managed to attach an icon to its Application-
Is there a simple way customise an individual window; and if so, how do you do it? Or do window decorations - if they are present at all - come bundled-in with the original application code, so that they can only be varied by some arcane script-editing process (which I would be very leery of attempting).
"No easy solution" will do as an answer here. I can then start to obsess about some other small problem.
