I'm drowining in your syntax here.
Most people do this the other way around, namely they replace the buggy
FvwmTaskBar[1] with FvwmIconMan, optionally swallowed in FvwmButtons.
What is it you're asking exactly? You want something that will imitate
FvwmButtons that isn't going to run inside FVWM?
You need to be much more specific about your requirements if you want
help with whatever your question is.
I want to have the buttons non in the button bar but as Icon on the Desktop.
I do not like the FvwmIconMan because the scrollbars and I wa not able to
stick it on the rootwindow transparent.
Exactly, I wand the Icons like under those M$ products on the desktop
If I haven't misundestood you, you could have this M$ appealing, with
several instances of FvwmButtons, one per application, with only one
button each, launching the corresponding application. Then you can place
them anywhere in your desktop (or page, sorry I don't remember exactly
which is the right word, but I think you know what I mean) using
"geometry" in style lines. They are nicer with no border (0 pixels). The
difference with those in M$ Win is that you cannot pick them up with the
mouse and replace in a differente position (or yes?).
Said that, a question arise: It's worth it, in terms of efficiency, to
have only one instance of FvwmButtons with all the buttons in it?
