It can be any window, including an xterm and FvwmButtons . It is simply
the last on the list. The strange thing is that a mouse press does seem to
modify the order of the list.

Pressing the first mouse button on the title is bound to the function
Move-or-Raise, which is:
AddToFunc "Move-or-Raise" "M" Move
+ "M" Raise
+ "C" Raise
+ "D" Maximize 100 100

I can't check more at the moemnt, sorry.

That's nice. Is there any "compiler" or such to check for irrelevant
conditions?

My sanity-check tools are the error messages sent by fvwm at load time,
and the syntax hilighting of vim . Apart from that I'm quite lost when
having to debug something.
