I think I've at least figured my terminology mistakes:
- the FvwmDesker is a separate window with 4 Desks (Main, Web,
  Devel, Games), each of those are a 3x3 window 'thing' (Desktop?)

- the FvwmButtons is a window with a clock, xload, xbiff, and
  one 3x3 Desktop(?) labelled Main.

I'm trying to get the Desker information into the FvwmButtons,
if that is possible. It seems that I need to modify something
similar to

  *FvwmButtons: (2x2, Frame 2, \
        Swallow "FvwmPager-Single" "Module FvwmPager FvwmPager-Single * *")

in FvwmButtons and create my own FvwmPager-XXX module, correct?

I suppose I will, as I'm not sure what to do if I abandon it(!).

I did, but it still seemed to be ignored also.

Thanks for the hand holding, but I really want to figure out
fvwm/fvwm2/fvwm-themes.
