Please forgive me if this is a stupid question as it may be more of a
obvious solution then I can find.
I've done a quick hack on the wmheadlines thing to grap fm, slashdot,
linuxtoday, etc. headlines and place them in my fvwm menu. Well then
they make menus that fvwm understands and they launch netscape and all.
However I'm unable to get fvwm to read the changed menus using
DynamicPopupAction.
I've looked over and over the man page and I'm sure it looks right. If
I do a restart it reads it the first time but it never changes if I open
the menu again, and I know that the info has been updated.
Here are the relevent lines from my .fvwm2rc
DestroyMenu Headlines
AddToMenu Headlines Headlines Title
+ "Freshmeat" Popup Freshmeat
+ "Slashdot" Popup Slashdot
+ "Linux Today" Popup LinuxToday
AddToMenu Freshmeat
+ DynamicPopupAction read .freshmeatmenu
AddToMenu Slashdot
+ DynamicPopupAction read .slashdotmenu
AddTomenu LinuxToday
+ DynamicPopupAction read .linuxtodaymenu
Looks right to me from the man page. Also I've never been able to get
the fvwm_browse_menu.sh to ever work.
And here is the info that the menu has.
DestroyMenu Freshmeat
AddtoMenu Freshmeat "Freshmeat Headlines [10-23-1999, 9:43AM]" Title
