That redecorated my windows. Thanks.
I was not running compiz, I guess, because I got
compiz (core) - Error: Screen 0 on display ":0.0" already has a window
manager; try using the --replace option to replace the current window
manager.
or maybe this happened because I ran xfwm4 first. Anyway, I'm getting
decorations, which is what I mostly care about.
Thanks again.
