Hello,

I go now for several weeks with fvwm (now 2.5.8) and really love it.
But I'm still a beginner (I've said it, okay?).  I'm used to operate my
pc with keyboard mostly.  Now I'm confronted with the lack of keys.
Several times it happens, that I strike a programs internal hotkey and
realize immediatelly, that I bound a fvwm command to it.  As I don't
know, what programs I will use (let alone, which hotkeys they use) in
future times, I would like to remedy this problem at all.

My former 'window manager' (screen) has a neat feature: any screen
command is introduced by a special escape key (C-a by default). E.g. I
use C-a " to get my windowlist, C-a C-c to get a new window and so on.
Can I do something similar in fvwm?  Any resources where somebody had
done something like this?

if this is a PC (or at least you are using a PC keyboard) you can use win key, AFAIK no apps use it. e.g. win key + arros move between virtual screens, win key + delete closes the window etc.


use xev to find out what your win key is (mine is Super_L) and use that or use xmodmap to make it whatever you want.
