Hi fvwm_at_fvwm.org

I have newly changed to fvwm2 on Linux-Pc (RedHat 6.2) and had just
subscribe to this mailing list.

I was used to the Motif type environment before moving to Linux a few
months ago and after checking out other alternatives, fvwm's motif-like
windows is the best for me.

Getting to the point, How do I customise my desktop such:

1. I'd like to move the Pager to the top-left corner of
   the screen, resize it to make it slightly bigger and change
   it's color

   By the way, what is "Apps" which is next to "Desk". Can I do
   away with it? Can I also remove xload on it's left.

2. How do I change the icons used for xterms, rxvt, netcscape etc
   to smaller icons or to icons I create myself?

3. How do I change the background color of the icon labels? Currently
   when out-of-focus, the icon labels are black on darkish grey
   background and is a bit hard to read.
     Can I also change the fonts.

4. Can I make window titles left-justified.

5. For some reason xbiff appear without any title or borders. What
   can I do to make it appear like other windows?
  

I hope these are all simple questions. Obviously I haven't got a clue
where to start. I've not been able to get very far looking at manpages
or at fvwm.org website.

Thank You for your help
Asri Sulaiman
