Hello Michael,
fvwm-crystal menu-method do
function CommandWOArgs()=shell("sh -r -c 'echo -n $0' "
Unfortunately -r which is not supported by dash, and /bin/sh in Debian
is not required to support it.
I suggest you simply remove the -r option. Please check whether other
sh scripts in fvwm-crystal are also affected.
Cheers,
