It is conceivable that you could do something like this using FvwmIconMan via SendToModule. Theoretical example: DestroyModuleConfig FE: * *FE: add_window FvwmFuncCheckWindow Module FvwmEvent FE DestroyFunc FvwmFuncCheckWindow AddToFunc FvwmFuncCheckWindow + I None ($[w.class], CurrentDesk) SendToModule FvwmIconMan Show resouce=$[w.class] + I TestRc (NoMatch) SendToModule FvwmIconMan DontShow class=$[w.class] ... And then somewhere in your FvwmIconMan config, your actions called FvwmWinList, or something to select other windows with the same class. The above won't work -- it's just a theoretical example. And whilst it's conceivable that myself or someone else could patch FvwmIconMan to accept more options via SendToModule, ultimately the feature should be built into it, rather than going through the elaborate method you see above.
