Tangentially related: Does anyone here routinely use the default fvwm?
Now for a really noobish question: Those that do, do you also launch
graphical apps by typing something like this in xterm:
$ firefox > /dev/null 2>&1 &
or do you normally do something else that I've totally overlooked?
(Again, this is about how people use stock default fvwm. If your
answer begins with "install $this_other_launcher", it's probably not
what I'm looking for, but thanks anyway.)
I just do
$ firefox
in an xterm and let it start in that window. I have 9 windows available
in the little floating window selector doohickey so one for firefox, one
for Thunderbird, and mostly the rest for xterms.
