Welcome to fvwm3. Fvwm3 is a multiple large virtual desktop window manager, originally (a looooong time ago!) derived from twm.
The successor to fvwm2.
Fvwm3 is intended to have a small memory footprint but a rich feature set, be extremely customizable and extendible, and have a high degree of Motif mwm compatibility.
Currently, your existing fvwm2 config will work with fvwm3
- None. fvwm3 is in development still. The
masterbranch contains what could be considered stable for now, but even then there are no guarantees of stability.
See the installation instructions
We have a strong community on IRC (freenode), in the #fvwm channel if you
fancy a chat.
There is also the Fvwm Forums where you can ask questions.
Issues (for bugs) can be opened, and any/all bug reports are appreciated!
Those interested in contributing to FVWM3 should have a read of the developer documentation.
-
A TODO file exists, and sometimes even things from it are worked on.
-
New commands and config file syntax thoughts are being documented here.
Please open a github issue or contact me directly if you wish to discuss a particular feature of issue you need help with.
