Hi all,

Firstly, I don't use / like desktops, because you can't jump between
them with the mouse AND the keyboard - thus I only have one desk with
6 screens. When I start Netscape, I normally find an empty screen,
start netscape, and then have to wait the 5 hours that it takes
netscape to get going. What would be really neat is to have fvwm
remember that I started netscape (or any other ap for that matter) on
the screen I was in when I selected the menu item (effectively running
a function), and then automagically made sure that the ap actually
appears in that screen, regardless of which screen I am currently in.
The ap would still think it's running on the normal screen, but it
would actually just appear in the background, as it were. (I can still
see it in the Pager for example).

Is this possible?
Any ideas?

THanks in advance,

Steve
