I've never found out how to create an xpm with a hotspot. But you
can trick fvwm into using the correct hotspot by using a larger
image and shifting it so that the hotspot is in the middle of the
picture. E.g. if your image looks like this:
*xx..
xx...
x.x..
...x.
....x
* = hotspot
x = black
. = transparent
Pad it like this:
.........
.........
.........
.........
....*xx..
....xx...
....x.x..
.......x.
........x
