FVWM: Maximising windows

Hello,

I have a dual monitor system using a dual head NVidia card. I have 2 key
bindings for maximising windows on to either monitor.

For the first monitor I Maximise the window to 1152x868 - the res of
that monitor. For the second I Maximise the window to 800x600 and move
it to 1152, 0.

This works fine. The problem comes in the folowing sequence:

1) Maximise window on to one of the screens
2) Try to maximise the same window on to the other screen

What should happen is that the window switches from one screen to the
other (and changes size as a consequence) but what actually happens is
the window de-maximises from whichever screen it was on.. ie. it
performs a restore instead of the maximise.

Presumably this is because normally when you execute a Maximise on a
maximised window you are in fact trying to de-maximise it, but in this
case I have two different states that are both maximised!

Is there any way to distinguish between to two different maximised
states so that FVWM will not try to restore a window when moving between
them?

Hope this isn't too confusing ;)

Thanks,

Andy
