Great, I'm pleased to see Andrew's patch going in. However, I feel
that it should include the ability to specify a foreground colour
for the titlebar, too. For example I have a solid light colour for
inactive windows, but dark for active, and need to change the text
colour accordingly.

A while back I submitted a patch to the patch that allowed, e.g.
  TitleStyle ActiveUp (Solid White/MediumPurple)
which corresponds to the standard fvwm colour-selecting syntax.
Unfortunately there's a bug in my code, but I'll try to fix
it in the next couple of days.
