Any JWM experts here? Need advice/help with JWM


Hey people,
still hacking at tinycore-2.1, which offers many Window Managers and so
I thought it would be easy to hack JWM, tinycore's default wm.

Here are my questions, I have googled for them, but no dice really

1) how to have rounded corners(menu, tray,etc)?

2) how to have transperancy?

3) Is there a color list somewhere with colors one can use with JWM?
for example "gold" is one, but "bronze" is not...?


any help greatly appreciated!
thanks

I have absolutely no idea (see, I don't know more than you ;-p) about round corners except the idea it might have to do with JWM and X shape extension support (compile-time, libXext)?
