NAME

       fvwm-bug - report a bug in fvwm

SYNOPSIS

       fvwm-bug [--help] [--version] [address]

DESCRIPTION

       fvwm-bug  is  a shell script to help the user compose and mail bug reports concerning fvwm
       in a standard format.  fvwm-bug invokes the editor specified by the  environment  variable
       EDITOR  on  a  temporary  copy of the bug report format outline. The user must fill in the
       appropriate fields and exit the editor.  fvwm-bug then mails the completed report  to  the
       local  fvwm  maintainer,  the fvwm workers list fvwm-workers@fvwm.org, or address.  If the
       report cannot be mailed, it is saved in the file dead.fvwm-bug in the invoking user's home
       directory.

       The  bug  report  format outline consists of several sections.  The first section provides
       information about the machine, operating system, the fvwm  version,  and  the  compilation
       environment.   The  second section should be filled in with a description of the bug.  The
       third section should be a description of how to reproduce the bug.   The  optional  fourth
       section is for a proposed fix.  Fixes are encouraged.

ENVIRONMENT

       fvwm-bug will utilize the following environment variables if they exist:

       EDITOR Specifies the preferred editor. If EDITOR is not set, fvwm-bug defaults to emacs.

       HOME   Directory in which the failed bug report is saved if the mail fails.
