NAME

       FvwmSave - the FVWM desktop-layout saving module

SYNOPSIS

       FvwmSave is spawned by fvwm, so no command line invocation will work.

DESCRIPTION

       When called, this module will attempt to save your current desktop layout into a file called new.xinitrc. Ideally, this file will look just
       like .xinitrc, but in reality, you will have to edit it to get a usable configuration, so be sure to keep a backup of your old .xinitrc.

       Your applications must supply certain hints to the X window system.  Emacs, for example, does not, so FvwmSave can't  get  any  information
       from it.

       Also, FvwmSave assumes that certain command line options are globally accepted by applications, which may not be the case.

COPYRIGHTS

       The NoClutter 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, NoClutter 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	NoClutter  executable  is  linked to another name, ie ln -s NoClutter OtherClutter, then another module called OtherClutter can be
       started, with a completely different configuration than NoClutter, simply by changing the keyword  NoClutter to OtherClutter. This way mul-
       tiple clutter-reduction programs can be used.

INVOCATION

       NoClutter can be invoked by inserting the line 'Module NoClutter' in the .fvwmrc file. This can be placed on a line by itself, if NoClutter
       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 NoClutter.

CONFIGURATION OPTIONS

       NoClutter reads the same .fvwmrc file as fvwm reads when it starts up, and looks for lines similar to "*NoClutter 3600 Iconify". The format
       of these lines is "*NoClutter [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.

NAME

       FvwmScroll - the fvwm scroll-bar module

SYNOPSIS

       FvwmScroll is spawned by fvwm, so no command line invocation will work.

DESCRIPTION

       The  FvwmScroll	module	prompts  the  user to select a target window, if the module was not launched from within a window context in Fvwm.
       After that, it adds scroll bars to the selected window, to reduce the total desktop space consumed by the window.

       FvwmScroll should not be used with windows which move or resize themselves, nor should it be  used  with  windows  which  set  the  WM_COL-
       ORMAP_WINDOWS property. Operation is fine with windows that have a private colormap.

COPYRIGHTS

       The FvwmScroll 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, FvwmScroll gets config info from fvwm's module configuration database (see  fvwm(1),  section  MODULE  COMMANDS)	to
       determine which colors to use.

       If  the	FvwmScroll  executable	is  linked  to	another name, ie ln -s FvwmScroll MoreScroll, then another module called MoreScroll can be
       started, with a completely different configuration than FvwmScroll, simply by changing the keyword  FvwmScroll to MoreScroll.

INVOCATION

       FvwmScroll can be invoked by binding the action 'Module FvwmScroll x y' to a menu or key-stroke in the .fvwm2rc file.  The parameter x  and
       y  are either integers or integers immediately followed by a p, which describe the horizontal and vertical size modification of the window.
       An integer describe a size reduction. An integer followed by a p describe a size as a percentage of the height  or  the	width  of  a  full
       screen  but  the  size is never larger than the original window size (0p will do nothing). Fvwm will search directory specified in the Mod-
       ulePath configuration option to attempt to locate FvwmScroll. Although nothing keeps you from launching FvwmScroll at  start-up	time,  you
       probably don't want to.

CONFIGURATION OPTIONS

       *FvwmScroll: Colorset n
	      Tells the module to use colorset n. See FvwmTheme.

       *FvwmScroll: Back color
	      Tells the module to use color instead of black for the window background. Switches off the Colorset option.

BUGS

       When the scroll bars are removed by clicking on the button in the lower right corner, the window does not restore its location correctly.
