HI I managed to convert my setup script to a Perl based fvwm module, and it works great. Popup menus that have dynamically added entries in them, now pup up much faster.
At first I used the module to do the entire configuration of fvwm, but this turned out to be much slower than reading the commands from a file. So now I only use the module for on-the-fly changes of single components, like the color scheme. The first time fvwm starts up, I write all commands to a file and read that. best regards jos -----Original Message----- From: Mikhael Goikhman To: Riswick, J.G.A. van Cc: FVWM Sent: 5/24/2002 10:11 PM Subject: Re: FVWM: Module.pm to write module in perl.. documentation?
