Hi all,

I'm trying to create a button in my buttonbar to popup a menu.

According to FvwmButtons(1):

# Pop up a module menu directly above the button.
*FvwmButtons: (9x1+3+0, Padding 0, Title "Modules", \
  Action `Menu Modulepopup rectangle $wx$h+$l+$t o+50 -100m`)

This should work, but it fails for me.

If I do a:

*FvwmButtons: (9x1+3+0, Padding 0, Title "Modules", \
  Action `Echo Menu Modulepopup rectangle $wx$h+$l+$t o+50 -100m`)

I get:

Menu Modulepopup rectangle $wx$h+$l+$t o+50 -100m

ie. $w & friends don't appear to be evaluated.

Any pointers muchly appreciated.

SCoTT. :)
