I spent some time updating FVWM's configuration file in SuSE 9.X I think it was. But then one of the reasons why this application wouldn't be ""Integrated"" is because it has nothing to do with FVWM per se -- it's just an application. If we took the stance of that logic further, we'd never stop integrating random applications. > After some braintwist, I came up with: > > *FvwmButtons: (Swallow KNWM 'Exec knetworkmanager -name "KNWM" -geometry \ > +0+0 -bg grey67 &') > > Perhaps that's not the most elegant solution, but it works. Well. you really mean: `Exec exec knetworkmanaget ....` To avoid the useless backgrounding on the intial Exec done by FVWM. Then there's the fact that I suspect this application would benefit by: Swallow (Kill, UseOld) Or some combination thereof. I don't know, I refuse to install KDE to find out. > If packagers would put something like above in there distributions, others > wouldn't need to twist their brains. It's not something that's going in any config file here (i.e., at upstream). At best you should hope it makes it on to some sort of "tips" section somewhere. There's certainly nothing original in your content or observations, I'm sorry to say. If you feel *that* strongly, by all means contribute it on the fvwm forums. -- Thomas Adam
