Re: FVWM: Using taskbar ?

Sorry for noise, but I read the FvwmTaskBar man and I'm still looking for
following options :

- Show icons only (I reduce the width of button to the 32 minimum, but it's
  still big... )
- Don't show the start menu. (I don't need such thing)
- Have the taskbar vertical... And don't take all the screen, but only
  needed space. (an invisible taskbar when no application is launched !)

Thx

PS: perhaps fvwmTaskBar is not the best way of doing what I want...
