Debian Menu and Fvwm2--help!
Is there a way to get a menudefs.hook in the user directories to override what's in the system menudefs.hook for fvwm2? I have parameters I need to pass to programs on the menu, but they keep getting blown away by some auto update of the menus. And any config I put in the user directory (.fvwm2/ menudefs.hook) just duplicates the entry on the menu. What am I missing? Thanks. Curt [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Debian Menu and Fvwm2--help!
You can use the ~/.fvwm2/menudefs.hook menus to override the system-wide ones. What you also need to do is to provide a ~/.fvwm2rc user config. file. Do this by copying the /etc/X11/fvwm2/system.fvwm2rc file to ~/.fvwm2rc. You then need to edit out the line: Read /etc/X11/fvwm2/menudefs.hook HTH Rich Disclaimer: I'm using fvwm95, and assuming that the configuration is similar. You should be able to use this at least as a starting-point.
