Do the following: BusyCursor Wait true AddToFunc StartApp + I Exec $0 + I Wait $1 # use these commands to start your heavy apps StartApp "xterm -title SystemLog -e tail -f /var/log/messages" SystemLog StartApp "sleep 3; xcalc" XCalc Of course, this only changes the busy cursor to clock (configurable using CursorStyle WAIT) on the root window, not inside existing windows. Press Ctrl-Alt-Esc if your app is not started for some reason to escape from Wait. Regards, Mikhael. -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL: http://www.fvwm.org/>.
