I am using fvwm to integrate different applications into a "carputer
front end". You can see images of the rough working prototype here:
http://moose.ca/node/49
Along the left side vertically is a FvwmButtons panel. Each button
switches to a different desktop that has the correct application
already running for each button function.
A cool feature would be to have a "hidden" key press that switches to
yet another desktop that has acroread displaying the field service
manual for the vehicle. However, there should be no indication of
this screen in the "root" FvwmButtons panel.
Is there a way in FvwmButtons to make a simultaneous press of two (or
more) buttons have an action? The man page didn't reveal anything but
a hint may have been overlooked (it's been that kind of day).
Maybe there is a better way to accomplish this? It doesn't have to be
part of the FvwmButtons config, that's just the current mind set to
have everything driven from that interface.
TIA
