Well, you probably already realize that an environment variable can serve as a generalized read path, but: Setenv X /usr/local Read $[X]/myconfig In "myconfig": Read $[X]/anotherconfigfile ... Read $[X]/anotherconfigfile/inasubdirectory but I still think you should be looking at PipeRead. PipeRead will read configuration from anywhere you like and provides the necessary flexibility to tailor the Fvwm configuration as its read. -- Dan Espen 444 Hoes Lane Room RRC 1C-214 E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Piscataway, NJ 08854 Phone: (732) 699-5570 -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL:http://www.fvwm.org/>.
