With fvwm-2.5.8 (from cvs) and Netscape 3, "netscape -iconic" works without problems. It is started iconic. If you start fvwm without any configuration, like "fvwm -f no-config", does "netscape -iconic" work? f it does not work, it is possible that you run some netscape wrapper script that discards its arguments. Alternativelly, it is possible to start any netscape iconic by adding: Style Navigator StartIconic But it causes all new subwindows to be started iconified too.
