Thank you. Fixed.

In these two bundles I use the "KWM_WIN_STICKY" and "WIN_STATE_STICKY" atoms. This 
because I'm not able to find the WindowMaker specific atom. But "KWM_WIN_STICKY" seems to be used 
by many window managers and it should work with WindowMaker, too. Probably, you must configure WindowMaker 
with kde support.
