Is it possible to take my SetEnv defined colors and translate them into symbolic colors useable by an xpm? This seems possible with FVWMCPP, but I've got not idea where even to begin.
No, FVWM does not support symbolic colors in XPM.
If it ever supports symbolic colors (fg, bg, sh, hi) in XPM, then you will need to define them in the colorset that is used in the area where your XPM image is drawn.
But maybe if you explain what you need exactly there is a different way to achieve this than to use XPM symbolic colors (like used, say, in CDE). For example, you may generate XPM dynamically (using "FvwmCPP -debug -noread", or maybe "FvwmPerl -p" or a shell script) and use this generated image for your needs.
I have declared (SetEnv) four strings at the top of my fvwm2rc file representing foreground, background, outline , and desktop color definitions. I would like to use these colors in some way to color three-color xmps without having to define the colors anywhere else in the file.
I apologize, Mikhael, for the personal email. It was unintentional.
