NAME
FvwmWinList - the FVWM window list module
SYNOPSIS
FvwmWinList is spawned by fvwm, so no command line invoca-
tion will work.
DESCRIPTION
The FvwmWinList module provides a window list made up of
buttons, each corresponding to a window that FVWM is manag-
ing. Clicking on the buttons with any of the three mouse
buttons will either do a default action or can be user con-
figured. Like the other modules, FvwmWinList only works
when fvwm is used as the window manager.

The FvwmWinList module is the original work of Mike Finger.

INITIALIZATION
During initialization, FvwmWinList will scan the same confi-
guration file that FVWM used during startup to find the
options that pertain to it. These options are discussed in
a later section.
INVOCATION
FvwmWinList can be invoked by fvwm during initialization by
inserting the line 'Module FvwmWinList' in the .fvwmrc file.
FvwmWinList can also be bound to a keystroke, mouse button,
or menu option to be invoked later, in this case using
'Transient' as an argument will cause FvwmWinList to resem-
ble the built in window list.
FvwmWinList must reside in a directory that is listed in the
ModulePath option of FVWM for it to be executed by FVWM.
CONFIGURATION OPTIONS
The following options can be placed in the .fvwmrc file
*FvwmWinListGeometry {+-}<X>{+-}<Y>
Specifies the location and gravity of the FvwmWinList
window. At the current time, size is not supported and
FvwmWinList will resize itself as buttons are added.
If the NoAnchor option is not specified then the win-
dows gravity corner will be anchored, and the window
will grow in the opposite direction. (i.e. If the
geometry is specified -5-5, that is SoutEastGravity.
This will cause the window to draw up and to the left
as windows are added)
*FvwmWinListFont font
Specifies the font to be used for labeling the buttons.
*FvwmWinListFore color
Specifies the color to use for the button names.
*FvwmWinListBack color
Specifies the color for the buttons.
*FvwmWinListFocusFore color
Specifies the color to use for the button names for the
window that has the input focus. If omitted, the color
from FvwmWinListFore is used.
*FvwmWinListFocusBack color
Specifies the color to use for the button for the win-
dow that has the input focus. If omitted, the color
from FvwmWinListBack is used.
*FvwmWinListIconFore color
Specifies the color to use for the button names for
windows that are iconified. If omitted, the color from
FvwmWinListFore is used.
*FvwmWinListIconBack color
Specifies the color to use for the button for windows
that are iconified. If omitted, the color from FvwmWin-
ListBack is used.
*FvwmWinListDontDepressFocus
By default FvwmWinlist will show the button for the
window that has the input focus as pressed in. This
option disables that feature.
*FvwmWinListUseSkipList
Tells FvwmWinList to not show the windows that are
listed on a WindowListSkip line if the configuration
file.
*FvwmWinListNoAnchor
By default, FvwmWinList will anchor the gravity corner
so the window will grow in the opposite direction.
This undoes that option.
*FvwmWinListUseIconNames
Tells FvwmWinList to use the icon name of the window
instead of the full window name. This is useful to
keep the width of the window small.
*FvwmWinListLeftJustify
By default, FvwmWinList will center the icon text in
the icon. This option causes it to be justified flush
with the left edge of the icon. This option is turned
on when MiniIcons are used.
*FvwmWinListMinWidth width
*FvwmWinListMaxWidth width
Specify the minimum and maximum widths that the buttons
will shrink or grow to. The buttons will normally size
to fit the longest name, but certain applications pro-
duce icon titles that can easily fill the screen. Set-
ting these parameters constrains the size of the but-
tons to be between the two values. Setting them ident-
ically will fix the size of the buttons. Setting Max <
Min will have unpredictable results.
*FvwmWinListTruncateLeft
If names get truncated because of the setting of
FvwmWinListMaxWidth, they will normally get truncated
on the right, so only the start of the names are visi-
ble. Setting this resource will cause them to get trun-
cated on the left, so that the end of names are visi-
ble. This is useful when the window title contains a
directory and file name, for example.
*FvwmWinListAction action response[,reponse...]
Tells FvwmWinList to do response when action is done.
The currently supported actions are: Click1, Click2,
Click3. The currently supported responses are any fvwm
built-in commands, including modules and functions.
