Actually, the thing was hacked and hacked again and then
some. It is due for a major rewrite, I think. I hope
some time later I will have the time to write it again
from scratch.

The following things may be done (and again may be not ;-)
in the future:
      - use the Shape extension to create
	an alternative asapm without the
	background pixmap

      - find out if it is possible to use
	some signals or events from X11
	instead of making a stupid while(1)
