If you want to hit a key and have unclutter hide the cursor, you don't need Fvwm for that. Modify unclutter to accept a signal and use kill -usr1 or something like that to tell it to hide the pointer. > The problem is i only have to catch the first key event after mouse > events and the first mouse event after key events.
