HI
I managed to convert my setup script to a Perl based
fvwm module, and it works great. Popup menus that have
dynamically added entries in them, now pup up much faster.
At first I used the module to do the entire configuration
of fvwm, but this turned out to be much slower than reading
the commands from a file. So now I only use the module for
on-the-fly changes of single components, like the color scheme.
The first time fvwm starts up, I write all commands to a file
and read that.
best regards
jos
