Ahaaa... Showing only windows for the currently active desk ...
that sounds like just the ticket.. Looking into that now.
That is where the confusion mostly arises... clicking on an iconified
window and having it jerk me to a differnt window than where I
expected. Sounds like having only the icons from the focused window
will cure that. And hopefully the middle click menu will still show
them all.
Not to press my luck too far here, but not sure what `FvwmTaskBar'
refers to. Is it a config file governing that module in the 2.3.x
betas?T
My fvwm2-2.2.4-4 man page refers to it as a Module

This confuses me as well... I've identified at the top of my posts
the fvwm packages I have installed
However Redhat also uses a related package called AnotherLevel which
contains a `decor' file called:
/etc/X11/AnotherLevel/decors/FVWM95
Its that decor I mistakenly referred to as fvwm95.

I have almost no experience with windows. The default
`fvwm2/AnotherLevel' (on redhat from version 4.1 to 6.2) is what I am
speaking of... From what I've seen on machines running windows it
doesn't look very much like it.. Maybe the taskbar across the bottom
and the `start' button are what earn it the FVWM95 title.
The default I've grown accustomed to.. and like, has a stark
aquamarine background, no icons, docs, wharfs littering the root
window (only a taskbar).
Any Iconization goes to the task bar. If I want any of the major
applications I call them with key strokes of my own selection, so
nothing is visible unless requested. I work mostly with a couple of
emacs' running and a couple of xterms
