Welcome to fvwm. Version 3 is a multiple large virtual desktop window manager.
The successor to fvwm-2.6.x.
Fvwm3 is intended to be extremely customizable and extendible while consuming a relatively small amount of resources.
Although an existing fvwm2 configuration should mostly work with fvwm3, it isn't guaranteed to work without some modifications. This is because fvwm3 has changed, often removing long-standing deprecated options.
More details about those changes can be found here
See the installation instructions
We have a strong community on IRC (libera.chat), 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.
