NAME
fvwm-themes-start - FVWM Themes starter SYNOPSIS
fvwm-themes-start [ --session|-s name ] [ --no-start|-n ] [ --fvwm-exe|-e ] [ -- fvwm-args ] DESCRIPTION
This script runs fvwm with FVWM Themes. It should be run under X. Put a call to this script as the last line of your .Xclients, .xinitrc or .xsession file. OPTIONS
--session name - name of the FVWM Themes session. By default it is "main". This allows to have and run different FVWM Themes configuration. --no-start - do not start fvwm, just do preparation for starting it. This is useful to start FVWM Themes with a session manager, see FAQ. --fvwm-exe - changes the default executable, which is fvwm or whatever fvwm-config --fvwm-exe returns. -- everything after -- is passed to FVWM. See the fvwm(1) man page for the fvwm options. EXAMPLES
Most users just should put: fvwm-themes-start as the last line of their .Xclients, .xinitrc or .xsession file. If you want to use FVWM Themes with a real session manager, say GNOME, you need to use the --no-start option and put: fvwm-themes-start --no-start gnome-session as the last lines of your .Xclients, .xinitrc or .xsession file. The session option allows to use FVWM Themes with different configura- tions. Say, you want to use 3 different configurations under a normal FVWM session when FOO test is false, under gnome-session and under a normal FVWM session when FOO test is true. Then, your .xinitrc/.xsession file may look as follows (where $1 is the "first" argument given by startx, or by kdm or gdm ...): ... case $1 in fvwm) if FOO; Then fvwm-themes-start --session special else fvwm-themes-start fi ;; gnome) fvwm-themes-start --session gnome --no-start gnome-session ;; ... other cases ... esac Note that with most session managers (e.g., GNOME or XSM) it is preferable to give "fvwm -f themes-rc" as the starting window manager com- mand in the session manager.

NAME
FvwmSave - the FVWM desktop-layout saving module SYNOPSIS
FvwmSave is spawned by fvwm, so no command line invocation will work. DESCRIPTION
When called, this module will attempt to save your current desktop layout into a file called new.xinitrc. Ideally, this file will look just like .xinitrc, but in reality, you will have to edit it to get a usable configuration, so be sure to keep a backup of your old .xinitrc. Your applications must supply certain hints to the X window system. Emacs, for example, does not, so FvwmSave can't get any information from it. Also, FvwmSave assumes that certain command line options are globally accepted by applications, which may not be the case. COPYRIGHTS
The NoClutter program, and the concept for interfacing this module to the Window Manager, are all original work by Robert Nation Copyright 1994, Robert Nation. No guarantees or warranties or anything are provided or implied in any way whatsoever. Use this program at your own risk. Permission to use this program for any purpose is given, as long as the copyright is kept intact. INITIALIZATION
During initialization, NoClutter will eventually search a configuration file which describes the time-outs and actions to take. The con- figuration file is the same file that fvwm used during initialization. If the NoClutter executable is linked to another name, ie ln -s NoClutter OtherClutter, then another module called OtherClutter can be started, with a completely different configuration than NoClutter, simply by changing the keyword NoClutter to OtherClutter. This way mul- tiple clutter-reduction programs can be used. INVOCATION
NoClutter can be invoked by inserting the line 'Module NoClutter' in the .fvwmrc file. This can be placed on a line by itself, if NoClutter is to be spawned during fvwm's initialization, or can be bound to a menu or mouse button or keystroke to invoke it later. Fvwm will search directory specified in the ModulePath configuration option to attempt to locate NoClutter. CONFIGURATION OPTIONS
NoClutter reads the same .fvwmrc file as fvwm reads when it starts up, and looks for lines similar to "*NoClutter 3600 Iconify". The format of these lines is "*NoClutter [time] [command]", where command is any fvwm built-in command, and time is the time in seconds between when a window looses focus and when the command is executed. At most 3 actions can be specified. AUTHOR
