FVWM = F? Virtual Window Manger fvwm = the FVWM window manager FVWM is an acronym as CDE, GNOME, ...etc., it should be written with (small) caps. It represents the all project (as CDE, GNOME, ...etc). FVWM is not a window manger it is much more (a pager, some taskbars, some GUI builders, some utilities, ..etc.) Basically it seems to me that FVWM is a lightweight X Desktop. At the present time the distinction is not made in the documentation. If we want to make the distinction we should re-read the all documentation and replace each occurrence of fvwm (and of the ugly Fvwm) by either fvwm or FVWM depending on the context. Of course, the main problem is that fvwm.1 is the man page for both fvwm and FVWM. Maybe we should rename fvwm to fvwm-wm :o/ Also we may want to write a small man page FVWM.1 with a small introduction and the list of all the others FVWM man page and docs with a small description (and noting that the general FVWM doc can be found in fvwm.1). We can also add docs/COMMANDS to this man page. Regards, Olivier -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL:http://www.fvwm.org/>.
