+Original behaviour in NextStep and OpenStep file viewer was that the first
+file view window had no close button or titlebar. This tends to bug the
+hell out of modern users, so this build includes an optional patch that
+adds a title bar (with a disabled close button) to the first viewer.
+
+This is strictly a cosmetic change... except if you run windowmaker,
+it allows normal wmaker stuff (right-click menu with minimize, Move to,
+Omnipresent, etc). Without a title bar, it's awkward or impossible to
+do normal window operations, so the patch actually adds functionality.
+
+By default, the patch isn't included in the build. To include it, set
+TITLEBAR=yes in the environment, like so:
+
+# TITLEBAR=yes ./fsviewer.SlackBuild
+
+...or if you use sbopkg, set TITLEBAR=yes as a build option.
