Thanks! It works just great =)

Now that I got to install 2.3.8 I might as well report a couple
of bugs I found:

1. When I do a "Restart WM" all iconified windows disappears on the
screen. This doesn't happen in 2.2.2. Actually the windows are still
there (I can open them by clicking in the WindowList) but they aren't
visible on the screen. FvwmPager sees them though. =)

2. WindowList doesn't show separators between the windows of different
virtual screens any more. I get a long list with all windows that I
have, but I can't see whick ones that are located in which virtual
screen. I run it with: WindowList NoGeometry.

Other than that it seems to work really well.

Btw, I have a question that might not be something that fvwm can change
or not (it might be the X server that is responsible). Does anyone know
if there is a way to make keyboard commands go to the active window
even when the mouse isn't over it? I use the keyboard a lot, and sometimes
it's annoying when I have to move the mouse to do a Shift-insert (to
insert copied text), or F11 (that I've bound to iconify) for example.
