I believe that it was intentionally permanently removed, since it eats
a fair amount of system resources to do that, unless you have a really
fast server & video card. I'll add it to the FAQ.

The 'include' command in 1.xx was actually due to the m4 processing
which could be optionally compiled in (on by default, I believe).
This should probably be added to the FAQ as well. If you use the
FvwmM4 module to read in your .fvwm2rc file, this functionalitly would
return, I believe.

Not possible to do on non-sticky windows, at least not yet. Added it
to the FAQ.
Along these lines, I have to admit that I was rather partial to the
sticky window having a different std color in 1.xx, but Rob changed
the way it was done due to it being difficult to do in the code
cleanly. I'd like to find a way to revive that, and if I happen to
find a clean way to make it all more generic, perhaps we can get the
title bar lines to be a more generic attribute as well. No guarantees
though.
Ludvig> Well, Chuck, keep on the good work, and Nation, thanks for

I'll try...
