I am afraid I must be missing something here. I am trying to compile
fvwm2 so that it will read a users .fvwm2rc if it exists, and if not read
the system default. (in this case, /afs/eos/contrib/wm/lib/system.fvwm2rc)
I have tried many different settings for FVWMRC in configure.h and have
yet to stumble upon the correct way to go about this. I honestly can't
believe that this feature wouldn't be in there somewhere. I'm afraid I
am at the end of my rope here. Looking over the man page, I noticed that
=perhaps= the way to go about it is with the read command, yet.. for
this to be effective, I would need to be able to detect if the .fvwm2rc
existed and if it did, read it and exit, otherwise continue on. (in the
system.fvwm2rc) I can not see a way to go about this. Maybe I'm just
tired and looking right over it, but I've been sitting here all day
looking at it and I'm just getting very frustrated. I would greatly
appreciate it if someone would tell me what I need to do. I could go in
and hack the source code, but I really would rather not.
Thanks for your time,
Daniel
