USAGE
       Here are some real life usages.

       Checks for xft support:

            if fvwm-config --supports-xft;
              then echo 1; else echo 0; fi


       fvwm-themes  package  checks  for  the  correct  fvwm version installed
       using:

            fvwm-config --version

       and tries to use the same installation directories:

            fvwm-config --bindir --mandir --fvwm-datadir


       A way to find the full path to the fvwm executable:

            echo `fvwm-config --bindir`/`fvwm-config --fvwm-exe`


       A way to start modules in perl:

            use lib `fvwm-config -p | tr -d '0`;
            use FVWM::Module;


       For a more human readable output, try:

            fvwm-config --info
