Is this still doable?
Custom tooltips aren't possible in FvwmButtons yet. I did have a patch for that from years ago, but it needs a bit more work. For now, you'll either have to live without it, or find an external clock application which can be swallowed by FvwmButtons and also has this tooltip functionality you're after. > > ... > > > FvwmForm > > Killed. > > I use FvwmForm to interactively ask questions and to interpret the ans- > wers received. How to do this now? I've just resurrected this module in Fvwm3. > Erm ... what's the difference between "Killed" and "Dead"? But more to > the point: How do I achieve the same effect with current methods? No difference. You can use the WindowList command in Fvwm, or I quite happily use an external command called 'rofi'.
