pyvcp panel always on top was created by Wirewrap
When starting a simple pyvcp panel from halrun, how to declare it to be "always on top"?
This can be done by a right click when the panel is already active, but it would be nice to have it as default.
As an example, halmeter, is "always on top".
loadusr -Wn ttt pyvcp -g +1300+100 -c ttt panel.xml

They is no access to this setting in pyvcp.
This would be a good add on.
A way around it if you were very interested is using the program devilspie

I have never worked with python, but googling around some I was lucky to find this similar solution in
StackOverflow
So in /usr/bin/pyvcp I blindly changed
to this
It solves my problem, if something else breaks I do not know.
