FvwmTalk(1) General Commands Manual FvwmTalk(1) NAME FvwmTalk - the FVWM command line interface SYNOPSIS FvwmTalk is spawned by fvwm, so no command line invocation will work. DESCRIPTION The FvwmTalk allows the user to type fvwm commands into a window, and have them executed immediately. These commands are usually specfified in the .fvwmrc file, or are bound to menu/mouse items as specified in that file. This tools is particularly useful for testing new configura- tion ideas, or for implementing temporary changes to your environment. COPYRIGHTS The FvwmTalk 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 So kill me, I can't remember what goes on. INVOCATION FvwmTalk can be invoked by inserting the line 'Module FvwmTalk' in the .fvwmrc file. This can be placed on a line by itself, if FvwmTalk 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 direc- tory specified in the ModulePath configuration option to attempt to lo- cate FvwmTalk. CONFIGURATION OPTIONS I plead ignorance here. Read the code.
