Do you have to so many different submenus? Why can't you have a few
large menus?
The first thing I can think of is that who wants to look through 400
menus? Maybe 400 little scripts and shell completion are a better way
to work. Maybe you can have a directory of all the scripts and use
fvwm-menu-directory to auto-generate the menus. It has a menu style
option.
You could have a file that contains a list of all the menu names, and
do something like:
PipeRead 'for menu in `cat menu_name_list` ; do echo ChangeMenuStyle
menu_style $menu ; done'
Just throwing some ideas out there.

Hello,
I have a menu (with submenus) where I start SecureShells for my servers
and workstations. Now I have the problem that I have too much submenus.
Exactly, I have to add around 20-40 PopupMenus to
ChangeMenuStyle SHELLS.pri PRIVATE PRIVATE.michelle1 PRIVATE.devel ...
and the same for
ChangeMenuStyle SHELLS.pub PRIVATE PUBLIC.www PUBLIC.debian ...
Question: is ther no way to use Wildcards or something like this?
I have allready tried
ChangeMenuStyle SHELLS.pri PRIVATE.*
but this give me the error that ChangeMenuStyle can not find the menu
PRIVATE.*
In summary I have to add arround 400 PopupMenus (increasing because my
customers). This is realy annoying because ist to much to control AND
it exceed the maximum commandline lenght (arround 1500 chars)... :-(
