What buttons window?  Do you mean FvwmButtons?  Again, be specific.

As for navigating pages and desks, see:  FvwmPager -- I mentioned this
before.

Well, I don't know if this is out of ignorance or due to what Rootless does,
but a minimal config for your FvwmPager would look like this:

    Style FvwmPager Sticky

    AddToFunc StartFunction I Module FvwmPager

... just those two lines.  Be sure to read up on the options FvwmPager
accepts to suit your needs (c.f. "FvwmPager * *", for instance).  Whether or
not a pager still makes sense in the environment you're describing is
academic at this point, but it still illustrates what you're trying to do
regardless.

That's OK -- it's usually odd to start another thread when doing so.

See above, but it's meaningless without clarification.

One more thing please -- do not top-post.
