I'd like to execute certain FVWM functions from a script.  Is this
possible and, if so, how?

Some ideas:

* I guess that one could use a program that connects to X
  and sends key events to FVWM.  FVWM then handles these key events
  according to "~/.fvwm2rc".

* Having a way to directly call, say, a function defined in
  "~/.fvwm2rc" would also be a nice solution, but I've no idea 
  whether it's feasible.

* The tool "wmctrl" seems to definetely work, but AFAIK it doesn't 
  allow calling arbitrary functions.

As for the functions that I want to trigger: At the moment, only 
changing of virtual desktops, preferably using special functions 
that I've put into "~/fvwm2rc".

PS: No web forum please (crappy user interface, no offline
capabilities, often no threading).
