For the benefit of other recent arrivals to Fvwm2 - who are equally
dismayed by the size (and number) of the relevant man pages:

Typing on the command line "info fvwm2" loads the man page and all the
routines (emacs bindings, I believe) for reading an info file.

This can lighten the reading load (yet to be tried).

There is also a vim plugin for loading the man page into vim and then
use the features of vim (e.g. search, mark, fold, etc) to make the
reading of the man page less daunting (tried it and it works).
