Hi Dominik.
THanks again for your help below. Just one problem...
WindowList (CurrentPage) works just fine
WindowList (xterm) also works fine
However,
WindowList (xterm, CurrentPage)
does not work (returns an empty list). Am I doing something wrong?
Also, where is the most uptodate man pages for these features. The man
pages on the fvwm web site does not talk about these as I believe it is for
an older version of fvwm.
THanks again.
Arya
