My Cygwin installation is Unix LF. Ok, that helped a little. Thanks. I ran dos2unix on all the files in my ~/.fvwm directory and got rid of the syntax errors. I am still not loading any of the *.xpm files because they are nowhere to be found! Also, "xload" is nowhere to be found. Help! This seems to be a broken installation. Should I be asking about this in the Cygwin/XFree86 list, instead? -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL: http://www.fvwm.org/>.
