Horribly out of date see the fvwm bug site at www.fvwm.org These bugs are not fixed, if you think you can help, do so. Known bugs as of FvwmButtons-080396: * There has also been reported problems with buttons hanging forever after being pressed. * Some swallowed windows crash when resized very small. Their problem. Known bugs as of FvwmButtons-070396: * Action commands are supposed to work also on swallowed windows, but there is a problem with X. After reparenting, XSelectInput is called with a mask including ButtonPressMask|ButtonReleaseMask, but evidently no buttonpresses are received, even though the program (like xload) doesn't use them for itself. So where is the bottleneck? Send the solution if you got it. OK, so I need to do SubstructureRedirectMask, and shuffle all the events onwards... really? No better way? Mmm..
