Actually, what I meant was running the FVWM Pager outside of FVWM, so that
if I chose I could use it with other window managers. I love using FVWM at
work because it allows me to be extremely productive. However at home I
don't really care what window manager I use, and gnome isn't all that bad,
except that the only pager they have sucks more than a team of hoovers on
"high". I haven't seen a pager as configurable and useful as the one from
FVWM. So I was wondering if it'd be difficult to take the FvwmPager out of
fvwm and generalize it for something like Gnome.

I've been using Nautilus and other stuff for filemanagement, and some of
them don't play nice with fvwm...
