Ummm .... FvwmIconMan *does* allow you to display icon-buttons
horizontally; i've got it doing that right now. I'm using
FvwmIconMan-0.9.8 with the following sort of configuration:
*FvwmIconMan*nummanagers 1
*FvwmIconMan*buttongeometry m4_eval(WIDTH / 8)x24
*FvwmIconMan*1*managergeometry 8x1+0-0
*FvwmIconMan*font helvetica-12
*FvwmIconMan*format "%i"
*FvwmIconMan*background DarkGray
*FvwmIconMan*foreground Black
*FvwmIconMan*plainbutton up
*FvwmIconMan*focusbutton down
*FvwmIconMan*focusandselectbutton down
*FvwmIconMan*selectbutton up
*FvwmIconMan*1*title {TaskBar}
*FvwmIconMan*1*iconname {TaskBar}
*FvwmIconMan*drawicons true
*FvwmIconMan*followfocus true
*FvwmIconMan*sort true
*FvwmIconMan*usewinlist false
*FvwmIconMan*1*dontshow resource=FvwmIconMan resource=FvwmPager resource=FvwmButtons resource=asclock resource=xmailbox resource=xeyes resource=NoResource
*FvwmIconMan*resolution desk
*FvwmIconMan*action Mouse 1 A sendcommand "Iconify -1", sendcommand "Focus", sendcommand "Raise"
*FvwmIconMan*action Mouse 2 A sendcommand "Iconify"
*FvwmIconMan*action Mouse 3 A sendcommand "Iconify -1", sendcommand "Focus", sendcommand "Lower"
*FvwmIconMan*action Mouse 1 S sendcommand "Iconify -1", sendcommand "Focus", sendcommand "Raise", sendcommand "WindowShade 2"
*FvwmIconMan*action Mouse 3 S sendcommand "Iconify -1", sendcommand "Focus", sendcommand "Raise", sendcommand "WindowShade 1"
Note that `WIDTH' is something defined by FvwmM4, which is called with
the -m4-prefix argument. `helvetica-12' is aliased to the local
variant of helvetica 12 point in a local fonts.alias file.
