[SOLVED] fvwm

devnull10 · 06-24-2011, 12:56 PM

I use fvwm and have it set up pretty nifty for quick use etc. What I would really like is to be able to add a button to the buttonlist in a window bar to send that window to the next virtual screen (ie, the one to the right).

Anyone help me?

There is a function called MoveToPage X Y. Where X is the the column and Y the row I think, I may have that reversed. Here is the menu entry I used for my window menu. The last five rows are the relevant ones. You'll have to change the X Y to suit your desktopsize. You can also tell it to move left or right by setting X= -1p or +1p respectively. For the full description look at the fvwm man page. Just search for the function MoveToPage.
