Hi,
Thanks for all the help. I found the problem. There is a bug in tkgoodstuff
that sends to fvwm style commands even when you tell it not to. I will have to
dive into that code to find the problem since it is no longer maintained.
Will the tkgoodstuff be maintained into the fvwm2 distribution? It would be a
shame to loose this nice piece of code.
