Odd that this works in wmii-4:

    /ImageMagick.*/ -> ~

But this doesn't work in dwm:

    { "ImageMagick.*", NULL, True}

I noticed your xprop(1) comment in config.default.h. In case you're
interested, here's a version that only forks two processes:

    xprop | awk -F'"' '/^WM_CLASS/ { printf "%s:%s\n", $4, $2 }'
