This is version 0.9 of FvwmIconMan, an icon manager modeled roughly on TWM's
icon manager. The file CHANGES lists what's new with this version, and the
included man page gives some examples of how to configure FvwmIconMan, and a
description of what it is, so I won't repeat it here. 

FvwmIconMan is contained in the fvwm distribution, but I do occasionally
release preliminary and bugfix versions on my web and ftp sites. This is
such a release. Fvwm2.0.43 was the current version of fvwm when I wrote this,
so if you have fvwm 2.0.44, then you shouldn't download this version of
FvwmIconMan. However, since FvwmIconMan is usually released with fvwm, the
Imakefile assumes that it is in it's usual place in the fvwm source tree. 
Therefore, you need the fvwm2.0.43 sources to compile this. If you desperately
don't want to do this, email me and I'll send you what you need to compile it
standalone (you don't think I keep the fvwm source around all the time, do
you?). 

This version of FvwmIconMan contains code which can display MiniIcons. In 
order to use this feature, you need to apply the MiniIcons patch to the
fvwm source. This patch is available from my web page or ftp site.

FvwmIconMan will work fine though with the stock fvwm2.

If something needs to be tweaked to make this more portable, then feel free to
inform me, and I would greatly appreciate any suggestions towards improvement.

I realize that the syntax for setting options is different from that used by
other modules.

I have discontinued support for fvwm 1. If you need to compile it for that
version of fvwm, send me mail, and I'll tell you how. The version of
FvwmIconMan included in the fvwm 2.0 distribution WILL NOT run under fvwm 1.
