Ok, I get it:

  http://www.mail-archive.com/fvwm-workers@fvwm.org/msg02706.html

and new docs says about it:

  http://www.fvwm.org/documentation/manpages/stable/fvwm.php

Currently Debian use 2.5.30 under 'testing' release. So this command
unavailable for me...

I have suggestion to make shorter alias for infostore for better usability,
instead of:

  Echo $[infostore.teddybearprog]

use shorter variant:

  Echo $[is.teddybearprog]
  Echo $[.teddybearprog]

My working result as diff available at:

  
https://sourceforge.net/u/gavenkoa/skel/ci/e76ab442390ae98e472a19d831b4160a48a48bed/

After setting up FvwmM4 I become think why use this module if I can run m4
when install my rc files (I manage my rc files under VCS and install them by
GNU Make)...

Now I think that FvwmCpp and FvwmM4 are mostly useless modules.

But regular users need docs that cover such use cases it form of recipe, like
at:
