Re: FVWM: any way to have fvwm send data to stdin of xterm?

  I'd use telnet and expect combination for this. possibly with
combination with some gui... leaving fvwm completely out of the loop (as
I think it does not really belong there).

  to use xterm as you describe you would have to generate X keyboard
events and send them to xterm window. I am not sure how to do it using
fvwm.
