                          Algorithm: *If there is no window currently on top, then make the next new
xterm stay on top (layer 6).*

I got that to work:

    Module FvwmEvent

    AddToFunc MyUpdate
    + I WindowStyle StaysOnTop

    AddToFunc MyUpdateIfXterm
    + I Current ("XTerm") MyUpdate

    AddToFunc MyUpdateIfLayer6Empty
    + I None (Layer 6) MyUpdateIfXterm

    *FvwmEvent: Cmd
    *FvwmEvent: add_window MyUpdateIfLayer6Empty

    Style * ClickToFocus

Now, I want that xterm on top also to be without title, and so I change the
fourth line to:

    + I WindowStyle StaysOnTop, NoTitle

This, however, stops xterm from going to top. It looks like StaysOnTop
stopped working.

*Did I run into a bug? If so, is there a workaround?*

Version:

    $ fvwm --version
    fvwm 2.6.5 compiled on May 15 2014 at 22:08:55
