FvwmGtkDebug(1) 						    Fvwm Module 						   FvwmGtkDebug(1)

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 in the dummy mode from the command line, but this only shows the GUI with dummy event data and not the
       real data.

DESCRIPTION

       This module monitors all fvwm event information and shows it nicely in the interactive gtk+ application. Good for debugging purposes.

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.

NAME

       FvwmDebug - the FVWM module debugger

SYNOPSIS

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

DESCRIPTION

       The FvwmDebug captures the stream of module packets coming from fvwm, and displays them on stderr.

COPYRIGHTS

       The FvwmDebug 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, the FvwmDebug requests that fvwm dump a complete window list into its pipe. These packets are  terminated  with  and
       "end Send_WindowList" message.

INVOCATION

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

CONFIGURATION OPTIONS

       There are no configuration options.
