Sounds like a wise move to me. Tkgoodstuff can auto-minimize for
real-estate. And, modesty aside, it's *way* functional. But like all
tcl/tk stuff it's memory-hungry.

No need to use FvwmButtons. To bind a fvwm menu to a tkg button, use
a Tcl command (in the "Advanced" preferences page) like this:

fvwm send 0 {popup "Utilities"}

Of course, tkgoodstuff also has a Menu button with a GUI-configurable
menu . . .
