Well... not _COMPLETE_ control :)
I just have to toss my inevitable complaints about "minor"
nits... although this actually annoys me quite a bit sometimes.
The one thing I like about tkgoodstuff over FvwmButtons (besides the
graphical construction windows--which I certainly don't _need_ but is
nice anyway--and the builtin widgets like tkgjots and webster) is that
tkgoodstuff "packs" buttons; that is, each button takes up exactly as
much space as it needs, and no more.
Sure, buttons are different widths but that doesn't bother me. It
allows me to fit more onto my button bar, _and_ (most importantly) it
allows me to swallow other apps and have the display exactly the right
size, instead of the nearest "button size" offset, which can make things
look odd.
