I dunno why but that did work. Thanks! *shrug*

Well, the only mappings on the arrows keys read like this:
Key Left R M Scroll -100 0
Key Right R M Scroll 100 0
Key Up R M Scroll 0 -100
Key Down R M Scroll 0 100
This can't affect the normal usage of the keys surely?
I read the section about 'Lenience' and to be honest I wasn't too sure what it meant by
"so fvwm provides a window-style, 'Lenience', which will allow fvwm to overlook this
ICCCM rule."
This implies an entry like:
Style "Knews" StickyIcon, Lenience
which has no effect. (Oddly enough! Its not mentioned in the style section or anywhere else
after that 'window-style' section.)
Any ideas? Perhaps its just Knews...I can't think what else I use keys for a lot at the moment.
