Specifically, the "Any" command is broken and works like "None".
In any case, it wouldn't do what you want here. The action of the
"Any" command is executed if a window exists that matches the
conditions. But it is executed outside of any window context, so
"Iconify" would ask you to select a window. What you want is
Key F10 A M Next (CurrentDesk, mutt) Iconify toggle
or
Key F10 A M All (CurrentDesk, mutt) Iconify toggle

Yes. The "$w" variable is expanded to the WindowId of the
current context window. For example,
Next (mutt) echo $w
prints the window id of the next window with the
title/class/resource "mutt".
