The libstroke package lets define actions in fvwm for certain mouse
movements (so that you can sort of "draw" with the mouse and have some
command run, for example draw a square to start some application.

You can find various rpm:s at http://www.rpmfind.net

This is not needed to run fvwm, though. If you follow the instructions
below.

You can also download a source-rpm and build that for yourself.
(These files ends in .src.rpm). Then do 'rpm --rebuild <file>'
This will produce a "normal" rpm (.i386.rpm) somewhere (rpm tells you
where it puts the output (binary rpm). Be sure to run as root, since it
writes to a directory a normal user don't have access to. Then run 'rpm
-ivh or rpm -Uvh on this file.

Alternativly you can download the source and compile it yourself. But
beware of the links that are put put in /usr/X11R6/bin if you keep any old
rpm from your Redhat installation, so that the right version is started.
