NAME

FvwmTalk - the FVWM command line interface  

SYNOPSIS

FvwmTalk is spawned by fvwm, so no command line invocation will work.

 

DESCRIPTION

The FvwmTalk allows the user to type fvwm commands into a window, and have them executed immediately. These commands are usually specfified in the .fvwmrc file, or are bound to menu/mouse items as specified in that file. This tools is particularly useful for testing new configuration ideas, or for implementing temporary changes to your environment.

 

COPYRIGHTS

The FvwmTalk 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

So kill me, I can't remember what goes on.

 

INVOCATION

FvwmTalk can be invoked by inserting the line 'Module FvwmTalk' in the .fvwmrc file. This can be placed on a line by itself, if FvwmTalk 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 FvwmTalk.

 

CONFIGURATION OPTIONS

I plead ignorance here. Read the code.
