NAME

       FvwmSave - the FVWM desktop-layout saving module

SYNOPSIS

       FvwmSave is spawned by fvwm, so no command line invocation will work.

DESCRIPTION

       When  called,  this  module  will  attempt to save your current desktop layout into a file
       called new.xinitrc. Ideally, this file will look just like .xinitrc, but in  reality,  you
       will  have  to  edit it to get a usable configuration, so be sure to keep a backup of your
       old .xinitrc.

       Your applications must supply certain hints to the X window system.  Emacs,  for  example,
       does not, so FvwmSave can't get any information from it.

       Also,  FvwmSave  assumes  that  certain  command  line  options  are  globally accepted by
       applications, which may not be the case.

COPYRIGHTS

       The NoClutter program, and the concept for interfacing this module to the Window  Manager,
       are all original work by Robert Nation

       Copyright  1994,  Robert  Nation.  No guarantees or warranties or anything are provided or
       implied in any way whatsoever. Use this program at your own risk. Permission to  use  this
       program for any purpose is given, as long as the copyright is kept intact.

INITIALIZATION

       During  initialization,  NoClutter  will  eventually  search  a  configuration  file which
       describes the time-outs and actions to take.  The configuration file is the same file that
       fvwm used during initialization.

       If  the  NoClutter  executable is linked to another name, ie ln -s NoClutter OtherClutter,
       then another module called OtherClutter  can  be  started,  with  a  completely  different
       configuration  than  NoClutter, simply by changing the keyword  NoClutter to OtherClutter.
       This way multiple clutter-reduction programs can be used.

INVOCATION

       NoClutter can be invoked by inserting the line 'Module NoClutter'  in  the  .fvwmrc  file.
       This  can  be  placed  on  a  line  by itself, if NoClutter is to be spawned during fvwm's
       initialization, or can be bound to a menu or mouse button or keystroke to invoke it later.
       Fvwm  will search directory specified in the ModulePath configuration option to attempt to
       locate NoClutter.

CONFIGURATION OPTIONS

       NoClutter reads the same .fvwmrc file as fvwm reads when it starts up, and looks for lines
       similar  to  "*NoClutter  3600  Iconify".  The format of these lines is "*NoClutter [time]
       [command]", where command is any fvwm built-in command, and time is the  time  in  seconds
       between when a window looses focus and when the command is executed. At most 3 actions can
       be specified.
