The pre-condition is that you have configured fvwm2 to give you a virtual
desktop. E.g. ``DeskTopSize 2x3'' gives you a virtual screen 2
physical screens wide and 3 physical screens high.
The ``fvwm2'' man page covers all the details. Search for ``desktopsize'',
``edgescroll'' and ``edgeresistance''.
My personal setup includes:
## Virtual desktop size in units of the physical screens.
DeskTopSize 2x3
## Amount of Resistance for moving from desk to desk with the
## mouse ... 0 0 allows for only window moves and resizes to
## reach into the next desk. mSec, pixels
EdgeResistance 500 150
## Percentage of a page (horizontal, vertical) to scroll when the
## cursor reaches the edge of a page ... 0 0 turns off scrolling
EdgeScroll 100 100
