Requirements

• Development version of FVWM, e.g. 2.5.x, preferably latest.
• Perl, for some scripts
• Microsoft fonts (Tahoma, Arial, Verdana) are suggested
• Built-in wallpaper support requires qiv to set root pixmap

Installation/usage notes

• The setup may require some tinkering (mostly with applications menu) before they will work for you.
• Don't forget to add ~/.fvwm/scripts directory to your $PATH (or copy/symlink the contents to ~/bin and add that to $PATH) or you will get very weird results.
• When unpacking updated tarball, don't overwrite your custom dotfiles in ~/.fvwm (e.g. .fvwm-layout) or your configuration will be reset to default.

Features

• Load and reload theme modules on the fly;
• Change colorsets, iconsets, module layouts and window decorations on the fly;
• Modular and easily extensible;
• Some basic multi-monitor support;
• Other stuff, see for yourself.

Download

Main tarball and pixmaps.

Here be dragons. Additional tarball contains some unsupported/obsolete configs. Not really recommended unless you really know what you're doing: additional stuff.
