Hello Forum,
first of all, this is my first post here and and I want to send Greetings to all of you!
O.K., Im trying out FVWM since a few days and I like it! To learn how it works Ive installed PEMs Theme, a very nice one, Congratulations for it! But I have one little questions : In the Theme the Icons are Pics from the Apps but I have changed it here to use Thumbnails/Screenshots. This works fine but I would like to draft (hmmm, my very bad Englich...I hope its right )
the Icons with my Mouse. In the Theme Icons are placed at one Point and I cant draft them over the Desktop. How can I change this? Thats all,
thx for all answers!
You can add
[code]DestroyFunc DeiconifyOrMove
AddToFunc DeiconifyOrMove
- M Move
- C Iconify false
Mouse 1 I N Function DeiconifyOrMove[/code]
to move icon dragging (I think that what you meant by draft) with button 1, and uniconify them by clicking on them with button 1.
hy, pem can i apply your mail script on FvwmRootMenu ?
thanks.
Thanks, now it works!
And yes, I meant “move” 
@Slackman:
No prob for your english. We got a lot of non-english guys around there (and count me in 
). So, welcome in our little Fvwm’s space
@UltraDiabos:
Well of course you can though it needs some enhancement. Just for a try, you could replace the weather_menu.plx call by this new one that you will call mail_menu.plx:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use Net::POP3;
use Env qw(HOME);
open(POP3FILE, $HOME . "/.secret_pop3") or print "file!" and exit;
my $var; my $varVal; my %allVar;
while (<POP3FILE>) {
chomp;
($var,$varVal) = split(/ /);
$allVar{$var} = $varVal;
}
my $pop = Net::POP3->new($allVar{server}, Timeout=>5) or print "net!" and exit;
$pop->apop($allVar{login}, $allVar{passwd}) or print "account!" and exit;
my ($undeleted) = $pop->popstat;
print "+ \"Number of mails: $undeleted\"";
$pop->quit;
hmm i’ve been tried to put the mail on fvwmrootmenu. my question is, the module Net :: Pop3 suports SSL ? because my email acount is gmail, and the POP3 server is pop.gmail.com port 995 SSL. And the file .secret_pop3 i’m not sure how i put the info on it, it’s something like this:
server
user
passwd
Am I right? if i’m not correct, correct me please
thanks
forget, the /.secret_pop3 is for log right ?
like /dev/shm/weather.log or i’m wrong ?
Humm, I think that it’s for regular POP3 account. I think that the SSL authentication is not supported in this old PERL module. Don’t know if it’s gonna work. 
Before integrate it into Fvwm, you should try mail.plx on command line.
For the info in the ~/.secret_pop3, you’re correct. It’s not the most academic way to hold password on a unix box but for a simple mail account that does its job.
BTW, this file is not a log, it’s more a configuration file 
hmm the result of perl mail.plx is net!
… :S
It just means that the command at line 12 in my script has failed. This failure may occur for 2 reasons: either there’s a mistake in the first line of the ~/.secret_pop3 (the server address) or the server that you are using is not compatible with POP3. From my point of view, gmail is not a POP3 compatible mail server and thus it does not provide a polling capability via POP3 
hahahaha , UltraDiabos , ve la se começas mas e a fazer as cenas por ti !!!
Quando e pa fuderes tb pedes ajuda aos outros ???
Eu não compreendi o que você disse mascanho 
(meaning in Portuguese: I haven’t understood what you said)
I’ve found this for GMail on wikipedia:
It seems that you need to configure your GMail account to grant a POP3 access to it. Even with this setting on, I’m still not sure that the old PERL module I use is able to use SSL to open the account 
yes, i have the option enable, but these perl module doen’s support SSL, i guess… but i’m going to check it better… thanks
hy, pem, i have some problems to configure mrxvt, i change the options, but takes no effect on mrxvt, i put your mrxvt configuration on ~/.Xdefaults … so i not understand… if you can give me some tip, i woul apreciate, thanks!
There are multiple options set at compile time. Getting the value under the ~/.Xdefaults is one among the others. Thus, this option may have been unset in your mrxvt binary.
Fortunately, mrxvt accepts also its configuration option under ~/.mrxvtrc. Give it a try. If it does not work, I recommend a recompilation with a different option set in the “configure” phase
thanks, i recompile mrxvt with a different option set in ./configure and now it works perfectly, thanks again…
