I understand. My principle would be "the border only appears when needed".

Hey!
Thanks to your hint, I did it.

In dwm.c:
In tileh() and tilev(), call monocle:

        if(--n == 0) {
                monocle();
                return;
        }

In monocle(), adjust as discussed above:

                        resize(c, mox - c->bw, moy - c->bw, mow, moh, RESIZEHINTS);

(It is here that the multi-monitor behavior might be affected. I don't know.
Have you tried this on multi-monitors?)

Now my dwm-4.9 appears to be perfect.
(Off topic: I apologize for the Windows footer added to these posts.
I want to leave Hotmail, and do something with Wordpress, or obtain
hosting somewhere, but I am unsure how to proceed.)
