Yes, you only need startfunc. To get more explanation, you should check the man page : http://www.fvwm.org/documentation/manpages/unstable/ Personally, I split my configuration in multiple file (function.fvwm, style.fvwm, menu.fvwm, etc) and I use a master file to read it. Something like this : #------------------------------------------------------------------------ # Read Configuration Files #------------------------------------------------------------------------ Read $[FVWM_USERDIR]/seed/src/style.fvwm Read $[FVWM_USERDIR]/seed/src/functions.fvwm Read $[FVWM_USERDIR]/seed/src/bar.fvwm Read $[FVWM_USERDIR]/seed/src/events.fvwm Read $[FVWM_USERDIR]/seed/src/menu.fvwm # At last, startfunc file Read $[FVWM_USERDIR]/seed/src/start.seed > > thanks for writing that info though, it was helpful. > Thomas Adam is the author I think.
