Since you predicate the fact that any instances of foo running before you exec a *specific instance* of foo, you have no choice but to do: AddToFunc StartFunction + I Test (init) SomeFoo DestroyFunc SomeFoo AddToFunc SomeFoo + I Exec exec foo -iconic + I Wait foo + I Style foo StartNormal > Will the "Wait foo" catch a window that starts iconified?

Well, you could use FvwmEvent to do so, but given predicate 1., of your original statement, it's not worth it. -- Thomas Adam
