FVWM: Bind functions to pan window frame

Hi there,

Is it possible to use the pan window to call fvwm-functions?

A couple of days ago there was a question about Auto-Raise and
Auto-Lower certain windows in this mailing list. It would be nice if
one could use the pan window frame to raise or lower FvwmButtons or
FvwmTaskBar. For example if the mouse pointer hits the left side of
the screen FvwmButtons would raise if it hits the bottom of the screen
FvwmTaskBar would raise and so on.

How difficult would it be to implement such behaviour? I had a look in
virtual.c where EdgeScrolling is done. It seems not impossible. Any
suggestions where to start from? Can I use constructs like

sprintf( tmp , .... ) ;
SendFvwmPipe( Fvwm_fd , tmp , 0 ) ;

in virtual.c as it is done for example in FvwmTaskBar.c or does this
work in modules only?

Thanks.

Uwe
