Hello,

I have a Perl program that creates several windows with TK. The main window (Main) will spawn various windows with the command 

    $window1=MainWindow -> new();
    .....
    $window2=MainWindow -> new();
    ....
    $window3=MainWindow -> new();
    ....

[download]

Eventually I iconify the windows, but they all have the same icon (one which reads Main) so if I want to bring up window1 I have to guess which icon to bring up, and I usually guess wrong. Is there a way to tell Tk to have the icon associated with window1 read win1, and the icon associated with window2 read win2, and so on.

Thanks in advance for any tips
