Hello folks,
I'm new to fvwm and have a question

Currently in my .xinitrc file I have the following

fvwm-themes-start &
xterm $(XT_GEOM)+0+$(XT_Y0 $XT_ARGS &
xterm $(XT_GEOM)+540+$(XT_Y)  $XT_ARGS &
etc.

Its an easy way for me to space the windows and specify the xterm args
in one line.

Anyway, I find that if I kill one of the xterms, it kills fvwm as well -
this is my problem - I'ld like for fvwm to stay up with my other xterms.

I understand that the standard way to start applications is via 

AddToFunc InitFunction
+ I Exec xterm

And this works - it starts the xterm and if I kill it, fvwm stays alive.

However, I have this in a themes files which is not a executing as a
shell script
and, therefore, can't use env variables.

Any idea on how to solve my problem and still be able to use env
variables.

Sorry if this is not clear

Thanks
-frank
