NAME
FvwmGtkDebug - graphical interactive fvwm module debugger SYNOPSIS
FvwmGtkDebug should be spawned by fvwm(1). To run this module, place this command somewhere in the configuration: Module FvwmGtkDebug To stop this module, just close the GUI window, the usual KillModule works too. You may also run this application as a regular program from the command line shell. But the communication with fvwm is not established in this dummy mode, so commands are not really sent and there are no real events received. However certain activity is emulated using dummy events. DESCRIPTION
This module monitors all fvwm event information and shows it nicely in the interactive gtk+ application. Good for debugging and educational purposes. Among the features: command console with history and auto command help, requesting to send back ConfigInfo (configuration of fvwm and all modules), WindowList (information about all windows) or custom Reply. The fvwm commands may be executed within the context of some window. The context window may be optionally set on invocation, like: "Next (Navigator) FvwmGtkDebug", and be set/unset interactively at any time. INVOCATION
There are several command line switches: FvwmGtkDebug [ --mask mask ] [ --xmask mask ] [ --debug level ] Long switches may be abbreviated to shorter switches. -m|--mask mask - set the initial module mask, 31 bit integer. This mask may be changed interactively at any time. By default almost all events are monitored (except for some flood events like CONFIGURE_WINDOW or FOCUS_WINDOW. The special value of -1 sets the maximal mask. -x|--xmask mask - set the initial module extended mask, 31 bit integer. This mask may be changed interactively at any time. By default almost all events are monitored (except for some flood events like ENTER_WINDOW or LEAVE_WINDOW. The special value of -1 sets the maximal extended mask. -d|--debug level - use the Perl library debugging mechanism. The useful levels are 2 to 4. SEE ALSO

NAME
fvwm-convert-2.4 - convert fvwm 2.2.x configuration file to fvwm 2.4 syntax SYNOPSIS
fvwm-convert-2.4 [source] [dest] DESCRIPTION
fvwm-convert-2.4 converts an fvwm 2.2.x configuration file into an fvwm 2.4 compatible syntax. It is not suitable to convert older 1.x configuration files. Please use fvwm-convert-2.2 to convert these to the 2.2.x format first. By default, fvwm-convert-2.4 converts ~/.fvwm2rc, saving the results in ~/.fvwm/.fvwm2rc. You must create the ~/.fvwm directory before running this command. Starting with the 2.4 release, the directory ~/.fvwm is the default location for fvwm user configuration files. Different source and destination files may be given. If the destination file already exists, this program exits. While the program runs it will generate a temporary file with the same name as the destination file with the suffix ".pass1" added. fvwm-convert-2.4 makes the following changes: PixmapPath/IconPath In fvwm 2.4, the PixmapPath and IconPath commands are replaced by the ImagePath command. In addition, the ImagePath can be compiled into fvwm. fvwm-convert-2.4 changes the PixmapPath and IconPath commands to ImagePath commands and removes any directories that are compiled into fvwm. Paths starting with a dollar sign are also removed. ModulePath In fvwm 2.4, the ModulePath is compiled into fvwm. fvwm-convert-2.4 removes any ModulePath commands it finds. If you are using your own modules, (not the ones that come with fvwm), you will have to fix your configuration file after using fvwm-convert-2.4. HilightColor In fvwm 2.4, the HighlightColor command is replaced by a Style command using the HilightFore and HilightBack arguments. fvwm-con- vert-2.4 makes these changes. HilightColorset In fvwm 2.4, the HighlightColorset command that was present in some of the 2.3.x beta releases is replaced by a Style command using the HilightColorset style. fvwm-convert-2.4 makes these changes. WindowShadeAnimate In fvwm 2.4, the WindowShadeAnimate command is replaced by the WindowShadeSteps Style option. fvwm-convert-2.4 makes this change. WindowFont In fvwm 2.4, the WindowFont command is replaced by a Style command using the Font argument. fvwm-convert-2.4 makes this change. ColorLimit In fvwm 2.4, the ColorLimit command is automatic. If you have a limited colormap, color limiting is the default. fvwm-convert-2.4 removes any ColorLimit command that it finds. GlobalOpts The GlobalOpts command is converted to Style options and the BugOpts command. Some options can not be converted automatically, though. Read Prints a message identifying any read commands found. The files being read may need to be converted also. Placement Styles Any of the old placement Styles found in the file can not be converted automatically. Instead, fvwm-convert-2.4 prints a warning. For details about the conversion, please refer to the "Window manager placement" section of the fvwm man page. FvwmConfig and FvwmPipe These modules are no longer a part of the fvwm distribution. fvwm-convert-2.4 prints a warning if these modules are found in the file. FvwmButtons panels The syntax of panels in FvwmButtons has changed. The conversion can not be done automatically. fvwm-convert-2.4 prints a message when it encounters a potential panel definition. For details about the conversion, please refer to the "CONVERTING OLD PANEL CONFIGURA- TIONS" section of the FvwmButtons man page. BUGS
You need Perl to be installed. WindowFont and HilightColor commands embedded in functions are not found. If you have either of these commands in functions, they are not detected. Known bugs can be found in the fvwm bug tracking system (accessible from the fvwm home page). Bug reports can be sent to the fvwm-workers mailing list (see the FAQ). AUTHOR
