I'd just like to thank Bruce Stephens <B.Stephens_at_isode.com> for sending
me all of his Makefiles for FVWM2 on Solaris 5.5 last night. I'd spent
several hours trying to get Imake to work, but a quick email to the FVWM
mailing list and 30 minutes later I have FVWM compiling away merrily.

This kind of thing really restores my faith in the internet community!
Thanks!

ObFVWM: Does anyone know of some web pages with lots of unofficial patches
to FVWM? (Don't worry, this is for Linux with a working Imake!) Also a
library of config files would be nice.

Thanks again,
Andy
