Is there a way to make this solution adjust automatically? (e.g. 100% in
width)?

I did play around with FVWMButtons once and I think it is much to
complicated to make it a replacement for FvwmTaskbar (IMHO). There
should be a more simple way of placing and sizing the content of it.
(Ok, maybe there is, but I did not find out.)

How I would like to configure it (Pseudocode):

Set Rows: 1
Add a Menu at the left
Swallow FvwmPager (which automatically should take so much space as it
requires)
Swallow FvwmIconMan (which takes all the space that is not used by other
Butttons)
Swallow xload, a net-load-tool and a clock at the right.

Ok, I think most users will install a ready to use panel like the
gnome-panel that can be configured by dragNdrop. Does work the cvs
version of Fvwm with gnome2 nowadays? I think there have been some
problems with it recently, isn't it?

I have read that someone did let the gnome-panel swallow FvwmPager. Is
this really possible? That would be great. Or can the gnome-Pager
control the Fvwm-Pages of one (or maybe multiple) desktops?

Thank you,

Gert
