Sorry, I really don't know much about FvwmScript, but a quick read
of the man page doesn't say anything about environment variables or
infostore.
Do you know if this is supposed to work?
Hmm, just checked:
grep -nH -e getenv *
FvwmScript.c:225: sprintf(path,"%s/%s",getenv("FVWM_USERDIR"),filename);
Instructions.c:73: home_dir = getenv("HOME");
Instructions.c:85: FvwmUserDir = getenv("FVWM_USERDIR");
Instructions.c:1719: home = getenv("HOME");
Doesn't look like there's any support.
A patch would be considered.
