>     1. In the window menus, a "Send to workspace..." option. In

>        workspace, as well.

Use the pager to drag your app of choice to whichever virtuell desktop you want.

Gkrellm2 is able to set this state itself after start. Goto Configuration/Properties and
check the box by "Set sticky state".
