Re: FVWM: Task Bar Disappearing
Well, i got the FvwmIconMan/FvwmButtons pair looking like my fvwmtaskbar. Two differences: fvwmtaskbar had a shared mail checker/date display. I dont know of an easy way to get both, so now it's just an xclock display. fvwmtaskbar colorset colors show up lighter than the same colorset in FvwmIconMan or elsewhere..

And before you ask, you could make this a window-specific binding:
Key (NameOfEmacsClass) F3 A A SomeFunc WindowShade
Key (NameOfEmacsClass) F3 A C SomeFunc Iconify
But I don't know if this is going to work well with Emacs, or if it's what
you want. Because Emacs would have to understand synthetic events, which I
am not sure it does, or can be told to do so. YMMV.

Since you make no guarantee of the number of Emacs windows, a blind approach
to this is:
Key F3 A A All (WindowsWhichAreEmacsClassName) WindowShade
Key F3 A C All (WindowsWhichAreEmacsClassName) Iconify
Which means you can reduce this to something like:
Key F3 A A SomeFunc WindowShade
Key F3 A C SomeFunc Iconify
DestroyFunc SomeFunc
AddToFunc SomeFunc
+ I All (WindowsWhichAreEmacsClassName) $0

FVWM: manipulating a specific window
Hi list, I'd like to have a key that toggles the state of a specific window instead of the window that currently has focus. Two thing that I'd like to have are: toggle iconification of Emacs with Ctrl+F3 and toggle WindowShade state of Emacs with F3. I sifted through various resources but can't find the solution. Any help is greatly appreciated! Titus

Not as such, but in my mind:
* FvwmSave
* FvwmSaveDesk
* FvwmDragWell
* FvwmTaskBar (it's only FvwmButtons and FvwmIconMan)
* FvwmWinList (it's FvwmIconMan with tweaks?)
* FvwmIconBox
* FvwmGtk
None of these are likely to affect you anyway.

It's been in the TODO for ages, and is finally viable now that 2.6.X is out.

Yeah that would be good. I always like to see how other people have configured their window manager as well, it always amazes me to see how versatile it is and some people achieve really fantastic results. jamie
