Quite a lot -- fvwm-crystal bears no relation to fvwm-themes.  fvwm-themes
uses perllib which is FVWM's internal perl wrappers around FVWM's module
interface to communicate with FVWM; allows for menu generation, etc.,
including use of FvwmScript.  Fvwm-crystal just doesn't use this, instead
making use of python.

It would not be much work to take what fvwm-crystal does and throw them in
to fvwm-themes as themes themselves -- the special menu code fvwm-crystal
uses (by way of python) can easily be rewritten.

Again, the similarities are such that fvwm-crystal and fvwm-themes allow you
to integrate different theme components into one, if desired, or to use a
defined theme outright.

But of course, the correct answer for your question is for you to just *try*
them for yourself, to see.
