If you have FvwmCommand working, a simple shell script like this will do
what you are looking for. You need to set FVWMLIB as your fvwm lib
directory and might need to use Desk command if you are using desks
instead of pages.


Hope it helps.

-------------------------
#!/bin/sh
. $FVWMLIB/FvwmCommand.f
while [ "1" ] ; do
GotoPage 0 0
sleep 10
GotoPage 0 1
sleep 10
GotoPage 1 0
sleep 10
GotoPage 1 1
sleep 10
done
