Nice one! A couple of questions though:

1) The man page I can use an X-geometry spec and gives:
   IconBox -80x200-1-1
   as an example. Is the first "-" a typo? I've used =80x200-1-1 and it works.
   
2) I took me a time to work out that multiple IconGrids are necessary when using
   multiple IconBoxes. It makes for very long lines in my setup:
   Style * IconBox =314x100+6-150, IconGrid 64 64, IconBox =314x100+6-250,
IconGrid 64 64, IconBox =314x100+6-350, IconGrid 64 64, IconBox =314x100+6-450,
IconGrid 64 64, IconBox =314x100+6-550, IconGrid 64 64, IconBox =314x100+6-650,
IconGrid 64 64, IconBox =314x100+6-750, IconGrid 64 64, IconBox =314x100+6-850,
IconGrid 64 64

3) Are you working on making the placement direction controllable? The above
   line is only there so I can have icons going upwards. If you are could you
   make it possible to bottom align the icons if they're going upwards?

Ta for the patch anyway,
Tim.
