I see a colorset as the only way to define colors inside a rectangle box. I don't think that 4 main colors are enough for all needs. IMHO, it is sometimes better to extend a colorset a bit if this solves a class of problems than to use a new colorset just for one single color (other 3 colors and background image are unused). There is no much need for sh_vector and hi_vector, they were examples. Although they don't consume more than some bytes and have good defaults. But do you have anything against adding fg_shadow color (or fgsh)? Regards, Mikhael. -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL:http://www.fvwm.org/>.
