No idea why you start an application you always want NOT from InitFunction
Simply because I do NOT always want it :-)
of course ... your choice.
I have many things (most, editors and terminals) I do not start at login
(these are essentially just browser, mail, plus fvwm-related things like
pager, perfmeter etc. ... there is even a network monitor I start at
login but I dismiss soon)
I even tried now starting firefox (not my palemoon browser which I left
running) with /usr/bin/firefox & and it went straight to the desktop
designates for browsers (due to the vestigial style).
That's exactly what I'm observing here, too, and what I simply don't
want. I want Fvwm NOT to change desktops when I start Firefox during
login. Maybe, I just didn't yet get my point accross ...
No, sorry, I was not clear. It is the browser which goes straight to the
desktop designated, but I remain in the primary desktop ! Which I guess
is what you'd like. And what I get.
If you start a program using "nohup", this command ...
I knew about it but it's a long long time since I felt the need to use it.
