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
FvwmClean - the FVWM desktop clutter reduction module SYNOPSIS
FvwmClean is spawned by fvwm, so no command line invocation will work. DESCRIPTION
The FvwmClean module performs actions on windows which have not had the keyboard focus for a specific length of time. This is intended to help alleviate the problem of leaving programs running in unused portions of your desktop. FvwmClean reads the same .fvwmrc file as fvwm reads when it starts up, and looks for lines similar to "*FvwmNoClutter 3600 Iconify". COPYRIGHTS
The FvwmClean program, and the concept for interfacing this module to the Window Manager, are all original work by Robert Nation Copyright 1994, Robert Nation. No guarantees or warranties or anything are provided or implied in any way whatsoever. Use this program at your own risk. Permission to use this program for any purpose is given, as long as the copyright is kept intact. INITIALIZATION
During initialization, FvwmClean will eventually search a configuration file which describes the time-outs and actions to take. The con- figuration file is the same file that fvwm used during initialization. If the FvwmClean executable is linked to another name, ie ln -s FvwmClean OtherClutter, then another module called OtherClutter can be started, with a completely different configuration than FvwmClean, simply by changing the keyword FvwmClean to OtherClutter. This way mul- tiple clutter-reduction programs can be used. INVOCATION
FvwmClean can be invoked by inserting the line 'Module FvwmClean' in the .fvwmrc file. This can be placed on a line by itself, if FvwmClean is to be spawned during fvwm's initialization, or can be bound to a menu or mouse button or keystroke to invoke it later. Fvwm will search directory specified in the ModulePath configuration option to attempt to locate FvwmClean. CONFIGURATION OPTIONS
FvwmClean reads the same .fvwmrc file as fvwm reads when it starts up, and looks for lines similar to "*FvwmClean 3600 Iconify". The format of these lines is "*FvwmClean [time] [command]", where command is any fvwm built-in command, and time is the time in seconds between when a window looses focus and when the command is executed. At most 3 actions can be specified. AUTHOR
