The following is not what you asked for, but may be useful
nevertheless. When you bind `Module FvwmForm SelWin' to a key, that
key pops up a window. You can enter the name of a window in there (or
a substring thereof), hit enter, and you'll be warped to the first
window that matches this substring. (You may also be able to use `*'
as a wildcard, but I'm not sure.)
Add the following to your .fvwm2rc:
##########################FvwmForm#Select#Window########################
*SelWinWarpPointer
*SelWinFont *helvetica*m*r*n*14*
*SelWinButtonFont *helvetica*m*o*n*14*
*SelWinInputFont *cour*m*r*n*14*
*SelWinFore Black
*SelWinBack Light Gray
*SelWinItemFore Wheat
*SelWinItemBack Gray50
# begin items
*SelWinLine center
*SelWinText "Select Window"
*SelWinLine center
*SelWinText "Pattern:"
*SelWinInput WinPat 20 ""
*SelWinLine expand
*SelWinButton quit "Go" ^M
*SelWinCommand Next [*$(WinPat)*] Function GoThere
*SelWinButton restart "Clear"
*SelWinButton quit "Cancel" ^[
*SelWinCommand Nop
All of this has been shamelessly stolen from some FvwmForm example.
If forget which one, though.
I use this often.
