First of all I would like to apologize for asking twice yesterday. The
computer I sent the mail from panic'ed and died exactly the same
second i sent the first mail, so no fcc was written, and I didn't
think it was sent.
I finally got things working, sort of, but a problem remains:
Here are some rows from my .fvwm2rc file:
#ifdef SMEDJAN
#define P_NETSCAPE_GEO 814x900+0+1024
#define P_TALL_GEO 80x69
#define P_BIG_GEO 163x69
#define P_CON_GEO 151x5-0-0
...
#elif SNICKERBOA
#define P_NETSCAPE_GEO 814x900+0+1024
#define P_TALL_GEO 80x69
#define P_BIG_GEO 163x69
#define P_CON_GEO 151x5-0-0
...
#endif
...
AddToMenu Main "Main Menu" Title
#ifdef SNICKERBOA
+ "New Terminal" Exec xterm -bg black -fg white -T Astrid &
#endif
+ "Netscape" Exec netscape -display $HOSTDISPLAY
-geometry P_NETSCAPE_GEO &
And here's the problem:
the #ifdef SNICKERBOA "New Terminal" #endif thing work fine, but the
Netscape thing doesn't. I get this error:
Warning: Shell widget "netscape.bin" has an invalid geometry
specification: "P_NETSCAPE_GEO"
But when just putting the .fvwm2rc file through cpp, and redirecting
the output to a file, using the command:
cpp -DSNICKERBOA .fvwm2rc > the_output_file
the_output_file looks like it should, P_NETSCAPE_GEO is replaced with
814x900+0+1024 and everything
Please don't tell me to just use different .fvwm2rc files for
different architectures. I'm doing that now, and it's _very_
frustrating to edit 12 different files when I'd like to add something.
As always, lotsa thanks in advance!
