Tidy icon events...

	I have a program that iconifies the graphics window when
a "stow" is selected as a smaller copy of the existing screen
image. As an icon, the program waits for an "open" or "winquit"
event to continue execution. The problem that I am experiencing
occurs whenever I select the "tidy" item while an icon is drawn;
my program starts to process events as if it is no longer an
icon (ie, as if it had been winopened!). I was surprised to find
that whenever the other window manager functions were selected
(pop, push, move) that a REDRAW event is queued, while when "tidy"
is selected absolutely no events are queued.

My question is what occurs when "tidy" is selected, and what
information/events are passed along to an iconified program?

Thanks in advance, Scott Kahn (Dept. of Chem., Univ. of Illinois)
