Has anyone else had problems using a working .fvwmrc file from a Sun system on Debian? Since fvwm on both systems is the same, I wouldn't expect such difficulties, but it seems that some things which work on fvwm for SunOS/Solaris cause a seg fault on Debian fvwm. Maybe the true culprit lies with a utility program somewhere and not fvwm itself?
For example, the following .fvwmrc line works on Sun, but not on Debian for me (it's the backquotes that are the problem): # Personal items Popup "My Utilities" Title "My Utilities" Exec "Xterm" exec xterm -n "`hostname|cut -f1 -d.`" -T "`hostname`" -e tcsh & EndPopup On debian linux this results in the message "NONE:0: m4: ERROR: EOF in string" and then a fvwm segmentation fault. Using the stock fvwmrc file provided with Debian of course works just fine, but since we use a mix of different operating machine types here, this is a problem I hope can be resolved. Can anyone tell from the above if this is due to a user configuration error, or a bug that I should report to the fvwm maintainer?
