I don't think FvwemIconMan can group windows inside one manager window. But if you know the window groups beforehand, you can create a separate window for each of the groups. Take a look at the example at the end of the FvwmIconMan man page: *FvwmIconMan: NumManagers 2 *FvwmIconMan: 1 Title "Emacs windows" *FvwmIconMan: 1 Show resource=emacs resource=gemacs *FvwmIconMan: 1 ManagerGeometry 1x0-400+0 *FvwmIconMan: 2 Title "All windows" *FvwmIconMan: 2 ManagerGeometry 2x4-0+0 It's not exactly what you described, but still better than nothing.
