Hello,

I have bound the FvwmAuto autoraise module to all window's titlebar button #2
mouse button #2, and I think it's handy because I use the module quite often.

Since I am equally likely to use the module as to get fed up of it while running
fvwm2, I also bound a function that kills the module to button #2 mouse
button #3, but to save buttons I would like button #2, mouse button #2 to
activate the module if it is not running and deactivate it if it is running.

This I think requires some sort of conditional structure in defining an Fvwm
function which I don't think is present in Fvwm right now.
So, could this functionality perhaps be added in the future?

I know I can have up to 10 buttons but I really don't like a cluttered titlebar.

After all, a window manager is all about look and feel isn't it?

----
Now, another thing, when I click on the button to activate the module the button
does not seem to go down for 1/6 of a second or anything which looks bad cause
it looks as if one never clicked on anything while in fact an action was 
invoked.
----
Also, the conditional statement functionality mentioned above should also prevent
me from activating multiple FvwmAuto modules (why would one need more than one
running? We need to include this because each module started needs to be killed 
separately, which can be tedious in this case, other than the fact that the 
modules would be taking up space for nothing.)
Best regards,
Neil
