Correct. All initialization is done through the rc file.

Actually this is a partial lie, it does check to see if an app has an
X resource of *desk, and uses that for StartsOnDesk. But that's it.

Not currently. You could try playing with GetShadow and GetHilite in
colors.c to change what it comes up with. I hadn't planned on adding
anything like this, but I may put it on the TO-DO list as a maybe.

This will eventually make it back in (it's on the TO-DO list).
