FvwmSave(1)                      Fvwm Modules                      FvwmSave(1)



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.
