NAME

       FvwmSave - the FVWM desktop-layout saving module

SYNOPSIS

       FvwmSave is spawned by fvwm, so no command line invocation will work.

DESCRIPTION

       When called, this module will attempt to save your current desktop layout into a file called new.xinitrc.
       Ideally, this file will look just like .xinitrc, but in reality, you will have to edit it to get a usable
       configuration, so be sure to keep a backup of your old .xinitrc.

       Your  applications  must  supply  certain hints to the X window system.  Emacs, for example, does not, so
       FvwmSave can't get any information from it.

       Also, FvwmSave assumes that certain command line options are globally accepted by applications, which may
       not be the case.

COPYRIGHTS

       The NoClutter program, and the concept for interfacing  this  module  to  the  Window  Manager,  are  all
       original work by Robert Nation

       Copyright 1994, Robert Nation. No guarantees or warranties or anything are provided or implied in any way
       whatsoever.  Use  this program at your own risk. Permission to use this program for any purpose is given,
       as long as the copyright is kept intact.

INITIALIZATION

       During initialization, NoClutter will eventually search a configuration file which  describes  the  time-
       outs and actions to take.  The configuration file is the same file that fvwm used during initialization.

       If  the  NoClutter  executable  is  linked to another name, ie ln -s NoClutter OtherClutter, then another
       module called OtherClutter can be started, with a  completely  different  configuration  than  NoClutter,
       simply  by  changing the keyword  NoClutter to OtherClutter. This way multiple clutter-reduction programs
       can be used.

INVOCATION

       NoClutter can be invoked by inserting the line 'Module NoClutter' in the .fvwmrc file. This can be placed
       on a line by itself, if NoClutter is to be spawned during fvwm's initialization, or can  be  bound  to  a
       menu  or  mouse  button  or  keystroke  to  invoke  it later. Fvwm will search directory specified in the
       ModulePath configuration option to attempt to locate NoClutter.

CONFIGURATION OPTIONS

       NoClutter reads the same .fvwmrc file as fvwm reads when it starts up, and looks  for  lines  similar  to
       "*NoClutter  3600  Iconify". The format of these lines is "*NoClutter [time] [command]", where command is
       any fvwm built-in command, and time is the time in seconds between when a window looses  focus  and  when
       the command is executed. At most 3 actions can be specified.
