Thats exactly why I subscribed to this mailing list. I am  just a starter in 
such developmental work and hence wanted some tips and help from you 
people.

I will look into the changes that have to be made regd the FVWM 2 
syntax. I beleive I have the necessary documentation to do so.

Thats a big ask. Probably can supply my own documentation with the app 
segregated for different functions.

Will do so..

I would like to know whether you got sources via CVS or the download 
page. I think I have made a few important changes that havent been made 
into a release yet.

Bye!!
