NAME

6       FvwmSave - the Fvwm desktop-layout saving module
7

SYNOPSIS

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

DESCRIPTION

13       When called, this module will attempt to save your current desktop lay‐
14       out into a file called new.xinitrc. Ideally, this file will  look  just
15       like .xinitrc, but in reality, you will have to edit it to get a usable
16       configuration, so be sure to keep a backup of your old .xinitrc.
17
18       Your applications must supply certain hints to  the  X  window  system.
19       Emacs,  for  example,  does  not, so FvwmSave can't get any information
20       from it.
21
22       Also, FvwmSave assumes that certain command line options  are  globally
23       accepted by applications, which may not be the case.
