 yes , and if you use csh or tcsh you can use ~ for $HOME... It work like mwm
(which use the SHELL variable to spawn process). I run fvwm redirect it to the
console, and see all message from the client. It's usefull when debugging, and
with csh you obtain the pid of the process (if you have to kill them).

Enjoy this

Bye.
