FvwmIconMan is the part that keeps track of running programs. I would first configure that, to act like the major part of the taskbar. After that you can add the start button and other things like clock/notifications by swalowing it into FvwmButtons.
I am sure there are good reasons for not keeping FvwmTaskBar but for me it is a shame. I think it's a cool feature. I've got it set up so it's transparent and i'm really happy with the look of it and the fact it's so easy to use. FvwmButtons is great there's no doubt about that and i've achieved really nice results with it in the past - for me anyway - but, it is tricky to get the more advanced configuration right. I haven't yet looked at using it as a task bar though so not sure how tricky will be. jamie
