This problem seems to occur with all versions of swing (at least
since swing-1.0.2.

I was tested also with multiple version of JDK (1.1.5 and later).

The basic problem is that all JFrames created with a title of
at least a character, are automatically prefixed with a "(B" when
running the application under fvwm and fvwm2.

The following code brings up the problem :-

import com.sun.java.swing.*;
import java.io.*;

public class Test
{
    public void main(String args[])
    {
        JFrame frame = new JFrame("Test");
        frame.resize(300, 200);
        frame.show();
        frame.setVisble(true);
    }
}


The title bar will now look like :-

    (BTest

This problem does not occur on the NT machines, running a shell
and does not happen with some other window managers.

This is a damn nuisnace.
