  you can have as many desktops as you want (well, I guess there's some
limit) each having MxN screens.

  use:

how many desktops you want:

     *FvwmPagerRows rows
          Tells fvwm how many rows of desks to use when laying
          out the pager window.


     *FvwmPagerColumns columns
          Tells fvwm how many columnss of desks to use when lay-
          ing out the pager window.

how many screens each desktop has:

DeskTopSize 4x3

  try these:

# press arrow + control anywhere, and scroll by 1 page

Key Right A C Scroll +100 +0
Key Up A C Scroll +0 -100

# press arrow + meta key, and scroll by 1/10 of a page
Key Left A CM Scroll -20 +0
Key Right A CM Scroll +20 +0
Key Up A CM Scroll +0 -20
Key Down A CM Scroll +0 +20
