Gerald, Hmm... the problem I'm running into with fvwm95 is that I can't do a build from a directory other than the source root, e.g.:
cd fvwm95-2.0.43c/ mkdir build cd build ../configure make [tons 'o errors] I'm not an expert on autoconf etc. yet, but I just bought the GNU Autoconf, Automake and LibTool book this week for a project I'm doing at work, so I may be able to fix the config files for fvwm95 within a couple of weeks. For now I'm just going to set this package aside. Harold > -----Original Message----- > From: Gerald S.
