Hi. I'm changing the official modules to use the new ParseModuleArgs function, and I have a question regarding the module Alias argument. Is it in fact a protocol standard or is it something some modules use?
I say that because some modules do use the argv[6] as an alias, but others get the name by other means from the args. Like FvwmButtons, which assumes the first "unmarked" argument as an alias. This is not necessarilly argv[6]. So the question is, do we want a real protocol extension for this or just a "common" thing. It makes no sense to use ParseModuleArgs unless it does simplify the module. I can change FvwmButtons to use argv[6] as an alias right now. But there would need to be an updating of the manual, and maybe lots of people would need to change their configs.. Cheers, Renato Caldas
