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 lay-
       out 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 configura-
       tion file is the same file that fvwm used during initialization.

       If the NoClutter executable is linked to another name, ie ln -s NoClut-
       ter OtherClutter,  then	another  module  called  OtherClutter  can  be
       started, with a completely different configuration than NoClutter, sim-
       ply by changing the keyword  NoClutter to OtherClutter. This way multi-
       ple 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.
