(Thanks for all the suggestions, everyone on the list.)

For reasons I don't understand, my version of FvwmWinList does not do
anything when I click on the window's title in the list. If I click mb2, I
can iconify and deiconify windows on the desktop, but that's it.

I rebind all my modified buttons (shift-, control-, meta-, etc.), so maybe if
the "jump to the window" functionality is on one of these shifted buttons,
that's why I wasn't able to use it?
