Wrong. FvwmIconMan & FvwmTaskBar implement them. But in this two modules they are called tips, not balloons. I think 'tips' is more conventional term. My suggestions: - Use term 'tips' instead of 'balloons' in any new code & docs. - Rename 'balloons' to 'tips' in FvwmPager, still supporting the old variant, but marking it explicitly as deprecated. (I can do all necessary changes and send a patch if core developers agree with this opinion). > I would assume that for sundry options such as: > > BalloonColorset <n> > > That would be a global option to FvwmButtons rather than a per-button > option? I can hardly imagine why users need tips with different colors. Don't bother, make it global.
