1) FvwmButtons: Exec "" (don't "depress" the button) doesn't work.
Example:
*FvwmButtons Xv none Exec "" exec xv &
Produces a button, but when clicked on doesn't do anything but the message
/bin/sh: : cannot execute
Cause: the command line sent to sh starts w/ ""...
Patch (I think...)

strcpy(tmp,"Exec ");
2) A window w/ a "*" (or a "%") in its name is shown by the internal window
list as having a null name. The FvwmWinList module works correctly, but its
slowness and lack of usability puts it off...
Suggestion: (fvwm/menus.c, AddMenu f.) if a pixmap can't be found for a window
name including an escape character, maintain the initial string in the menu
entry. Sorry, don't have a patch, since AddMenu() & friends are truly
obfuscated code...
Keep on the good work, Chuck.
