Hi, all!

I've been using .41 for a while now and everything's great. I
downloaded .42 today and compiled it; no problems there. The problem
is the 'new and improved FvwmButtons' module. I can't seem to get it
to do _anything_, let alone what it was doing before. FvwmButtons is
in the Init and Restart functions, and I rewrote the *FvwmButtons
stuff to conform to (I think) the new format. The relevant lines are
included below. All they do now is start up the Pager in the lower rh
corner of the screen. I get no errors in .xsession-errors, no
disk-thrashing, nothing. Can someone take a look at this, or perhaps
confirm that something might be wrong (doubtful, it's probably me
doing something stupid)?

Thanks a lot for your time.
