The "Application name" part after Exec seems to be important. If you don't get it right, the button will look pressed all the time. I don't know what fvwm95 looks at for buttons, but I guess it is the window title, or something else, of the executed application. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- dancer, a.k.a.
