NAME
fvwmbug - report a bug in FVWM
SYNOPSIS
fvwmbug [address]
DESCRIPTION
fvwmbug
is a shell script to help the user compose and mail bug reports
concerning FVWM in a standard format.
fvwmbug
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.
fvwmbug
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.fvwmbug 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.
