[P [_ fvwm Fvwm] is my favorite window manager. I used it until 2014,
when I had to switch to a WM that could display the wifi status
app-thingy... at that moment I couldn't make [_ stalonetray] work, and
I couldn't start a secondary X server with "[_ second-X xinit -- :1.0
vt8]", so for some years I was forced to use only window managers that
I didn't like.]

[P Now I am starting to use Fvwm again. I am using fvwm3 [_
fvwm3-compile compiled] from [_ fvwm3-git git], with [_ pdfs-and-txts
this trick] to convert all its manpages to PDFs and .txts for quicker
access. I use this shell function - "[_ a]" - twice to start an X
server with fvwm: when I run "a" from VT5 it runs "xinit -- :1.0 vt8",
that starts a very bare X session with just an xterm, and when I run
"a" in that xterm it starts fvwm, or replaces an fvwm that is already
running.]


[P A problem: FvwmCommand is not working. Details [_ FvwmCommand-bug
here].]

[P From 1994 to 2004 (?) I used the Linux text-mode consoles ("VT"s)
almost exclusively: X was just for [IT graphical] web browsing (for
most things there was [R
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lynx_%28web_browser%29 lynx]) and for
seeing .ps and .dvi files. Then I decided to fix my fvwm initizalion
files, that were slightly tweaked versions of the ones by Lars
Wirzenius that were the default in several GNU/Linux distributions
many years before...]
