WSH questions

I was hoping someone could answer some of these questions:
1) in the documentation, they explain how to set the titlebar title of a
wsh window with escape sequences. Is it possible to set the icon title?
2) is it possible to specify where a wsh icon is to appear when it is
iconified? Is it possible from the command line to have a wsh
window start out iconified?
3) does anyone have a really good wsh termcap that would take advantage of
all of its features? Better yet, a program like X's resize that
would allow the host to inquire the terminal's size and set the
termcap appropriately (for a BSD or Mach host which uses termcap
not terminfo).
(Yea, I know vt100 works OK, but it could be better by using
highlighting and variable sizing.)
4) in xterm, the ALT key acts like an emacs meta key, and ctrl-space is
and emacs set mark. Is it possible to have wsh exhibit these
properties?
There is code in /usr/NeWS/lib/NeWS/bindkey.ps that appears to
handle the meta key, but we can't figure it out.
I appreciate any and all help. I will summarize if solutions are found.
Thanks,
Mike
