I've never found out how to create an xpm with a hotspot.  But you
can trick fvwm into using the correct hotspot by using a larger
image and shifting it so that the hotspot is in the middle of the
picture.  E.g. if your image looks like this:


  *xx..
  xx...
  x.x..
  ...x.
  ....x

  * = hotspot
  x = black
  . = transparent

Pad it like this:

  .........
  .........
  .........
  .........
  ....*xx..
  ....xx...
  ....x.x..
  .......x.
  ........x

Bye
