The attached files are a patch to FvwmBanner and, just in case of an
inclusion in the fvwm package, to the manpage.
When I start up X, I like having a picture on the center of the background
(the silly linux penguin) for ten seconds. Unfortunately, I thought, if I
happen to click on the image, it disappears. My patch prevents it, by
introducing the option "*FvwmBannerMouse Ignore".
While I was at it, I also added FvwmBannerX and FvwmBannerY.
Now my question is: is there a way to pass the ButtonRelease to fvwm so that
it will display the root menu over the image?
All The Best,
Marco
