I am getting there, just a little piece missing. For testing, I did: AddToFunc Tile + I SetEnv cur_x $[w.x] + I SetEnv cur_y $[w.y] + I SetEnv cur_width $[w.width] + I SetEnv cur_height $[w.height] + I All PipeRead 'echo $[cur_x] $[w.x] >> ./test_out' In the hope that $[w.x] in "All" would apply to the context of the window all is calling on currently. But the result is, the $[cur_x] $[w.x] both give me the x position of the current focused window. Do I somehow have access to a variable within in "All" that iterates of the x position (and other infos) off all windows? BTW: I am staying away from FvwmPerl, because I do not know any perl.
