Here's what I did:

  xwd -silent -name "Desk 0" | xwdtopnm > pager.pnm

(and then turned on the GIMP)

But
1.) I only get the green channel
2.) Parts of other windows overlapping FvwmPager are also rendered

See http://www.gisser.de/pager.xwd.pnm.gif and http://www.gisser.de/pager.real.gif
Maybe this is more something for a pure X mailing list...
Seems I'll wind up doing this with the GIMP...

Can anybody tell me how to automatically raise the FvwmButtons window before doing
the xwd stuff ?
