Well... the only thing I'd like to ask for (aside from gradients in
menu-style), would be for an extra type of gradient. In addition to
VGradient and HGradient (Vertical and Horizontal), it'd be cool to have a
DGradient (Diaganol (sp?))... Which would take flags as directions... Or
maybe just make one gradient style where the first argument is the
direction, i.e.:

        instead of
        HGradient 16 3 Red 20 White 30 Blue 50 Grey

        you could have
        Gradient North 16 2 Red 50 White 50 Grey

where North could be interchangeable with North, South, East, West,
North-East... etc... or the single letter equivalents... N, S, E, W, NE,
NW, SE, SW ... etc... It might make things a bit easier... but I don't
know how easy it'd be to code that (mostly cuz I can't code worth-a-crap).
Just a suggestion though... It might actually make more sense that way to
a .fvwm2rc newcomer...
