Question - does this mean I can call a command from FvwmButtons without the full
pathname? That would be *very* useful indeed, especially for less experienced

(I imagine that this is what the patch is for, just want to check before going and
FTP'ing the source over again. If this is a silly question blame lack of sleep!)
