I think I have found a bug in FvwmForm.
In the man page it says:
---- Start of included text -----------------------8<--- cut here -------------
$(name) If name corresponds to a text input field,
the result is the user's input string. Spe-
cial chars such as ", ', and will be pre-
ceded by a backslash.
If name corresponds to a choice, the result
is the value of the choice (as specified in
*FvwmFormChoice) if the choice is selected.
If the choice is not selected, the result is
a blank string.
---- End of included text -------------------------8<--- and here -------------
but in fact (in my experience) $(name) expands to its value
whether it is set or not!
Also why is it not possible to use the same name (with different
values of course) for more than one choice. It would be very
natural and useful.
If anyone is interested I can send you my Xrsh form (now
working!), which allows you to choose a programme and host to run
it on with just 2 mouse clicks. :-)
