Then use any other application you have, like "xterm -class DummyWindow"
or "gdialog --title DummyWindow --msgbox finished 100 100".
Don't forget to add "All (DummyWindow) Close" after Wait.

You don't want to freeze fvwm until xterm completes, this is why you
can't do it using Read or PipeRead, you need Wait, so fvwm is still
functional although it waits in a function.

The answer is the same, either use "FvwmCommand" shell command or "Wait"
fvwm command, whichever is more suitable for you.
