Basic FVWM config

Here’s a basic config I did this week out of boredom]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9102829/fvwm-woomia-small.png[/img]

And a larger image:

I based it on the Fvwm config from scratch right in these forums.

I only keep my most used applications in the button bar: Firefox, rxvt and leafpad. The exit button exits on mouse 1 and restarts on mouse 3. Everything else I either launch from the built in fvwm menu or an xterm.

At the bottom of the screen is a taskbar like iconman.

My config is haphazard. I just added stuff as I went along. It could use more work but it is functional as is so I probably wont tinker with it much.
