FVWM: Preprocessing .fvwmrc with FvwmCpp

Hi

I want to write a .fvwmrc which provides a slightly
different setup on our Decs/Suns/SunMono's. I thought I'd
get FvwmCpp to run over it and I check for the various
defines it produces (COLOR, SERVERHOST, etc).

It seems I have to start fvwm with an invocation something like:

% fvwm -f "FvwmCpp /home/ian/.fvwmrc"

to process the file, and I also have to modify the fvwm code to
accept a ';' as a comment instead of the '#', since cpp barfs
on all the fvwm '#' comments.

This seems a bit laborious - how does everyone else do it ??

Cheers

Ian
