Window decorations are a function of the window manager.  If you are
using the python XLIB stuff, the best you can do is mark a window as
transient.  Most window managers default to "no decorations other than
border" for transient windows.  Tkinter may allow you to create
windows with transient properties.  Now that I think about it, there's
probably a toolkit-dependent method of creating transient windows for
every GUI toolkit out there.  So you'll have to RTFM for your toolkit
(since you didn't actually tell us which toolkit you're using).
