Colour sets are used to specify the foreground, background, shadow
and hilight colours, pixmaps, etc. of most of the widgets in all
of fvwm's modules and most of the core. The main benefit is that
colour sets are controlled centrally by FvwmTheme. New
decorations are applied to all windows and modules immediately -
without restarting the modules or fvwm. The proper way to set up
colour sets is this:
1) Put the *FvwmTheme lines at the front of you .fvwm2rc file.
2) Start FvwmTheme with ModuleSynchronous directly from the
.fvwm2rc, *not* from the StartFunction or InitFunction.
3) Use these colour sets wherever you like (module configs, fvwm
core).
When fvwm is running, existing colour sets can be changed by
sending a message to the FvwmTheme module:
SendToModule FvwmTheme Colorset <cset_number> <options>
Here is an example from my own config file (with fake colours).
The option you need is
*FvwmTaskBarIconColorset 6
