in thread creating skinable Perl/Tk apps

Actually overrideredirect(1) does not do the same thing as Winamp. Let me be more specific: overrideredirect(1) does remove the window decorations, but it also removes the abilities to move the window and resize the window. How can that be done?

    How can that be done?
    Through platform specific hacks (diddling the decorative window), or by managing it yourself.

    MJD says "you can't just make shit up and expect the computer to know what you mean, retardo!"
    I run a Win32 PPM repository for perl 5.6.x and 5.8.x -- I take requests (README).
    ** The third rule of perl club is a statement of fact: pod is sexy.

      And just out of curiosity, even though i probably will get scared away by the answer, how does one manage a window themself?
