When you iconify or deiconify a window, FvwmAnimate draws lines on the
root window between the window and the icon.
If you are using a 2.2 version of fvwm and you are using an icon manager
instead of the root window icons, you won't see anything.
In the 2.3 betas, additional configuration would be needed to get animation
with the icon managers.
If you have a very fast machine, you may have to increase the line width
or iterations. The effect may be going by too fast for you to see anything.
Try a line width of 16 and work down.
