I already started this topic several times in the past, but it seems noone else worries about this. I worry, so I will implement this soon. In short, ".fvwm2rc" name has 3 small problems as explained in todo-2.6.
I suggested either ~/.fvwm/main or ~/.fvwm/config variants in the past. The second one seems to be the most intuitive. Also ~/.*/main does not return anything for me, and ~/.*/config returns 12 application config files in my home directory. Currently fvwm searches for the starting config file in 5 places, I will add 2 more places, i.e. $FVWM_USERDIR/config and $FVWM_DATADIR/config. Some places (like ~/.fvwm2rc in $HOME) should be removed, either before or after 2.6.0. Of course, ~/.fvwm/.fvwm2rc should stay for some years. Another thing I will do later is to go throw all zillions places containing the string ".fvwm2rc" and replace it with "~/.fvwm/config". This way we will be completely free from "2" in our file names. Note that ~/.fvwm/config is designed to be the final fvwm config file. A user may already dispatch it if he really wants, like: Test (Version 2.5.*) Read config-2.5 Test (Version 2.6.*) Read config-2.6 Regards, Mikhael. -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL:http://www.fvwm.org/>.
