BorderWidth Q:

I'm trying to make my FvwmButtons completely transparent. I've
followed the directions to use Colorset and that works, but a problem
remains. I set the borderwidth of the buttons to zero, i.e.

Style "FvwmButtons" BorderWidth 0, CirculateSkip, StaysOnTop

but it still remains, and it seems the only way to get rid of the
border is to use

Style "*" BorderWidth 0

but that makes all my windows have no border. Am I missing something?
How can I tell fvwm that just the FvwmButtons have zero borderwidth?
or could i set the color of the border to transparent?

Mouse and Key defs:

I don't understand these at all and I can't find any documentation.
For instance, what does the following mean,

Silent Mouse 6 FSTW N RaiseAndFocus
Mouse 3 R N Menu MP3PlaylistMenu

Just want documentation...

Launcher Q:

Following the advice of the FAQ's I tried to use the following code

     # FvwmButtons icon launcher:
     DestroyFunc Launcher
     AddToFunc Launcher
     + I DestroyModuleConfig $0Launch: *
     + I *$0Launch: Geometry 64x68
     + I *$0Launch: Columns 1
     + I *$0Launch: Rows 4
     + I *$0Launch: Frame 0
     + I *$0Launch: (1x3+0+0, Icon $1, Action (Mouse 1) `Exec $2`)
     + I *$0Launch: Pixmap none
     + I *$0Launch: (1x1+0+3, Font 9x15, Fore White, Back DarkBlue, \
                    Title $0, Action (Mouse 1) `Exec $2`)
     + I Style $0Launch HandleWidth 0, NoTitle
     + I Module FvwmButtons $3 $0Launch
     # Examples:
     Launcher RXVT xterm.xpm "rxvt -bg black" "-g +0+0"
     Launcher XV xv.xpm "xv" "-g +0+100"

it works great but i puts this awful nontransparent box at the
bottom. I'd prefer to either eliminate the text box altogether or set
its color to transparent just like i did for FvwmButtons. Is there a
way to do that?

any help would be greatly appreciated.
