# Here's rob's MWM like configuration,
# with lots of changes to make it more like the Indigo Magic desktop
# seen on Irix 5.2 machines (i.e. Indies, newer Indigo^2's) by
# tabaer@magnus.acs.ohio-state.edu.

#
# (This is actually a set of bug reports masquerading as a sample config)
#
# WARNING:  This is as much my personal preference as anything else.
# The button and menu layout is based on my experiences with SGI
# machines at Ohio State and NASA-Lewis, so your mileage may vary...
#  --tabaer@magnus
#
# This configuration file expects the following options to be compiled into
# fvwm:
#	HOTKEYS
#	MENUCOLOR
#	MODULES
#	SHAPE
#	XPM
#
# Also, the following options SHOULD NOT be enabled:
#	NO_ICONS
#	NON_VIRTUAL
#	PRUNE
#
# This config is known to work with fvwm 1.21b, and should work with later
# versions as well.

# button text left-justified and the icons right-justified, like in SGI's
# toolchest, but I'll have to hack that out myself when I get the time.
# Perhaps there's a way to set up GoodStuff so that button appearance
# is configurable, too.  Also, is there any way to get the popup menus to
# cascade off the buttons, rather than appearing over them? --tabaer@magnus
