About warping long line:
With ItemDraw it is not possible to warp long line. To Display 3 lines
you need to use 3 ItemDraw. However, with List widget you can
display long text (by separating the lines by some |).
To capture an environment variable in a FvwmScript you can do
Set $cmd={echo $MyEnvVar}
Set $ScriptVar=(GetOutput $cmd 1 -1)
and your env variable will be in $ScriptVar

AddToFunc FuncMyStartApp
+ I FvwmScript FvwmScript-MyWaitScript $1
+ I Wait "name of FvwmScript-MyWaitScript"
+ I Exec exec $0
+ I Wait "$1"
+ All (name of FvwmScript-MyWaitScript) Delete
So now to start an app with name app_name and execution cmd
line exec_name you should execute (FVWM sense):
FuncMyStartApp "exec_name" "app_name"
We use some things like that in fvwm-themes. Also, I assume that
you use fvwm-2.3.3x, but the above works probably with 2.2.x.

I am not sure that my answers are better than if you answer. Also,
I am not sure to really understand the questions.
Hope this help. Olivier.
