InfoStoreAdd return error when the variable is empty

2013-04-17 Thread Dominique Michel
I use imfostore for a variable that can have 2 values: 2/dev/null or
. When I try to initialize it to , I get the following:

InfoStoreAdd TestVariable 
[fvwm][CMD_InfoStore]: ERROR Bad arguments given.

I don't know if it is a wanted behaviour. But  or '' are not the
same than a missing value.

This it is not a problem for my use case, if I do the same with a space
 , it work fine.

I use it as an extra parameter to functions that launch external
software from the menus or buttons. That way, I can choose if I want or
not the messages from those software mixed with the ones from fvwm into
the log file, Very useful to silent the kde or gtk+ programs :)
