I'd love to have the Pixmaps in the menus, too. I found that really
VERY pleasing.

That would be very nice too.

I found this package (fvwm95) very interesting, and I really hope I
will have pixmaps in my menus one day. However, I was unable to
configure fvwm95 to make my windows look like they did before so I
went back to vanilla fvwm. I hope it wont be necessary to make fvwm95
a window manager "on its own"! I'd be very happy if at least parts of
it would be available as add-ons to fvwm in the future, either as
Modules (TaskBar) or as configuration options (Pixmaps in the menus
and window title bars).

Thanks to both teams for this wonderful stuff anyway!
Frank
