OK, I'll try that. Right now I have the window list switched off - I
use WindowList bound to the middle mouse button instead.

BTW, IWBNI one could tell FvwmWinList not to quit when it got a
keystroke, like it does now. And IWB even nicer if FvwmWinList would
relay keystrokes to the selected window, like tvtwm's window list does
(i.e. I don't need to switch to whichever page Netscape is on to quit,
I just point at the line that says "Netscape" in the window list and
press Alt-Q)

Shouldn't be much work, should it? 2.0.46 only has three relatively
small patches:

root@niobe /usr/ports/x11-wm/fvwm2# wc patches/*
      96     308    4768 patches/patch-aa
      22      98     671 patches/patch-ab
