Thanks !

|: FvwmTabs: Window doesn't exist.
|: FvwmTabs: Window doesn't exist.

|re-swallow these windows - if you get the above error message it means
|that FvwmTabs couldn't find that window after the restart.
|
|: i believe they are still running on my machine.

|Can you confirm this? If FvwmTabs doesn't swallow them, & this is a

yes, my tests shows that they are still somewhere, unaccessible.
|
|There could be any number of reasons why the window was destroyed during

xterms, freshly opened.
if there is only one fvwmtabs, i can restart without losing xterms in it.
(btw, when a window is swallowed, i don't see it's name anymore in the WindowList....)
here is my test :
2 Fvwmtabs, with 2 xterms insides :

################# 7
at the 7 restart, the 4 windows disapeared (strangely,
there is only 2 lines "Window doesn't exist" in the xsession error.
it is faster to get this when you have more fvwmtabs opened.
(say, 3, 4)
i can still list the process by pstree :
| | |-xterm -sl 5000 -bg white
| | | `-zsh
| | | `-xtail /tmp/test1
| | |-xterm -sl 5000 -bg white
| | | `-zsh
| | | `-xtail /tmp/test2
--
| | |-xterm -sl 5000 -bg white
| | | `-zsh
| | | `-xtail /tmp/test4
| | `-xterm -sl 5000 -bg white
| | `-zsh
| | `-xtail /tmp/test3
so they are somewhere, but not on my display, neither on the
windowlist. so i can't get them back. i don't know where they are.
(very frustrating... :-/ )
