Hi,

is it possible to set the WM_CLASS of gVim to a custom value?

If you're using a GTK version of gvim, you should be able to pass the '--class' commandline argument.

e.g.:

$ gvim --class yay
$ xprop WM_CLASS
## ...then click on the window...
WM_CLASS(STRING) = "gvim", "yay"


Not sure this is documented anywhere. Found it by source-diving. There's a large set of:

    /* Arguments handled by GTK (and GNOME) internally. */

starting at line 333 of src/gui_gtk_x11.c
