Some of you may have noticed that it is not hard to add functions to
fvwm. TogglePage isn't the ideal example, because it tinkers with
a few functions outside of its own execution, but I'll go on anyway.....
Most unix systems these days have the option to dynamically load object
files to a running program (gnu:dld, sun: dlopen/sym/etc, OSF1:dlopen/sym/etc)
has anyone thought of making most of the functions dynamically loaded modules?
They could be loaded on demand - if you don't find a function, you can
dynamically load it if you can locate its .o file.
I thought of doing this a long time ago, but it adds complexity to
the build-process - since you need to accomodate systems that lack the
dl* functions.
