Sorry I don't have a `cpp' example (I like some of the benefits of m4 :-),
but the key is the SCREEN setting that is defined. Here is an example
from my somewhat extensive .fvwm2rc that I designed for our "standard
X environment" here at ANS:

AddToFunc "SetupFunction"
+ "I" Exec ROOT_BACKGROUND_CMD &
m4_ifdef(`AUTORAISE_DELAY',`
+ "I" Module FvwmAuto AUTORAISE_DELAY
')
m4_ifelse(SCREEN,`0',`
+ "I" Module FvwmButtons
m4_ifdef(`NO_ICON_MANAGER',,`
+ "I" Module FvwmIconMan
')
',SCREEN,`1',`
+ "I" Module FvwmButtons Fvwm_Buttons1
m4_ifdef(`NO_ICON_MANAGER',,`
+ "I" Module FvwmIconMan
')
',`
# Screen 2
+ "I" Module FvwmButtons Fvwm_Buttons2
m4_ifdef(`NO_ICON_MANAGER',,`
+ "I" Module FvwmIconMan
')
')

Hopefully this provides an example of how to do what you want. Notice
the argument to FvwmButtons for the other screens (so you can have
different button bars on each screen).

Regards,
Eddy
