Hi, I thought it's about time to give fvwm-themes a try. (version 0.6.2 built for SunOS 5.8).
We're all forced here in my company to use the dt login/session manager. I'm using a Dtsession X-resource, i.e. "Dtsession*wmStartupCommand: /usr/local/gnu/bin/fvwm2", to start fvwm instead of CDE (that's what we're supposed to use). The docu says to add the startup command to .xsession or .xinitrc (that's how I do it on my Linux PC), but AFAICS this Dtsession doesn't read either .xinitrc nor .xsession. I changed the startup command to "/usr/local/gnu/bin/fvwm-themes-start" and this worked (the only problem I saw was with FvwmBanner see below) until I tried to select one of the themes. Than I had these nice color problems, e.g. menues in black on black. Thus I've changed the Startup command now to "/usr/local/gnu/bin/fvwm-themes-start -- -l 61" but now my error log has a lot more to say: --- snip --- awk: syntax error near line 1 awk: illegal statement near line 1 Cannot parse color "CDE_COLOR2_BG" Cannot parse color "CDE_COLOR2_FG" Cannot parse color "CDE_COLOR3_BG" Cannot parse color "CDE_COLOR3_FG" Cannot parse color "CDE_COLOR1_BG" Cannot parse color "CDE_COLOR1_FG" Cannot parse color "CDE_COLOR3_BG" Cannot parse color "CDE_COLOR3_FG" Cannot parse color "CDE_COLOR1_BG" Cannot parse color "CDE_COLOR1_FG" Cannot parse color "CDE_COLOR6_BG" couldn't create gradient ...
