i want to know which configuration files should i edit to make the fvwm
redmondxp theme more windows xp style. because i can't edit the file called
.fvwm2rc like here : http://www.igs.net/~tril/fvwm/configs/fvwm2rc,because
they use no theme. we have different configuration files. maybe to make
the things easier i shouldn't use themes,but i like the fvwm windows xp
themed task bar, i won't to lose it. my problem is that i want to find a
tool/project/script to make the icons on the desktop like windows xp,but
im not able to find something useful for me. i've found only the perl script
in the website above,but is very hard to understand how make it works. till
now i've found :

1) rox filer with pinboard,but i dislike the filer
2) idesk,but there is no wizard to make the icons on the desktop,i should
edit the configuration file by hand
3) desktop file manager,with a very bad wizard to make icons on desktop

i have no other solutions till now...

       *FvwmTaskBar: StartIcon icon-name
              This option specifies the name of the icon to dis­
              play at the left of the Start button.

See above.

"menu voices" -> "menu entries"

       *FvwmTaskBar: Font font
              Specifies the default font to be used for labeling
              the buttons, when they are not depressed. If not
              specified, fixed font is assumed.


       *FvwmTaskBar: SelFont font
              Specifies the font to be used for the depressed
              buttons. Note that the Start button will use always
              this font even if is not pressed. If this option is
              not specified, the default font is used instead.


       *FvwmTaskBar: StatusFont font
              Specifies the font to be used for the clock and tip
              windows. If this option is not specified, fixed
              font is used.

the files that i should edit are the same that u explain above,now that
u know that im using the redmondxp theme ?

lemme know,thanks
