Two screenshots are attached, null224.gif is fvwm-2.2.4 (from
ftp.fvwm.org), null24.gif is fvwm-cvs-2001-Sep-10 (cvs checkout, not ftp
snapshot). Both were made with "./configure --prefix=<dir>; make; make
install", with no other options specified. Both were run with
<dir>/bin/fvwm2 -f /dev/null.
While both of these screenshots are 1px less tall than their
yesterday's AnotherLevel-based analogs (due to lack of buttons?), the
picture is the same -- 2.4 is 2px wider and 1px taller than 2.2.4.
However, I didn't check 2.2.5 yet (in fact, I never used it). The extra
hilited pixel is also there.
