Auto overlap in Epoch... Annoying

I am sure this is a FAQ (but I didn't see a FAQ list), but is there any command-
line argument that stops Epoch from automatically popping itself up over other
windows (I have forgotten what the precise X-terminology for that is).  When
I am running programs that put small windows over my Epoch window, it is really
annoying to have epoch draw over my program, and then I have to iconfy or move
Epoch out of the way to see my program.  Most irritating.  Don't tell me I have
to recompile, I will be very unhappy. :-(.  BTW, I am running OpenWindows on
a Sparc-2.

Thanks,

Eric van Bezooijen
