Hello Mitch,

Thanks for responding to my email so quickly.

I was able to locate these in the .qvwmrc and turned them to false, but the 
problem seems to be that the icons do not come across for some reason when I 
run qvwm.

This is strange because the fvwm95 icons do appear for us.

We are working on an "Exceed" type application that will let Windows and MAC's 
connect to an Xserver via the use of WeirdX at:

  http://www.jcraft.com

and when I tested out the lesser advanced fvwm95 with the still very 
developmental Desktop application 

http://xclass.sourceforge.net/applications.html

which is put out to work with fvwm95 then the icons show up good on my windows 
machine although the Desktop application is still under heavy development and 
really does not work very good yet.

I wanted to use qvwm with WeirdX to connect to my Xserver on Windows, but the 
icons do not show up and I do not know why?

Best Regards,
Cheers,
Lonnie
