Thanks for link. Nice start creating tiled wallpapers.

Has been silent for a while when things work fine.

Two new extensions have been included: "Wifi & Sound Tray" and ceeslan's yad Exit Menu that was posted on this forum.

If you have Fvwm3 myExt installed, run the Ext Installer and upgrade to version 3.2.5 (left-click, System, Ext-Install) or check at Git Hub:

I added all the main extensions (configs) in the Fvwm Extensions wiki. There are currently 45 configs. If anyone is interested to build their own, they are nice examples to have a look at. Many of them were modified from different configs located all over the internet, a time-consuming search. I hope this will help.

This is 100% Fvwm. No changes made in the default Fvwm system. Rather it is the base for the extensions (configs) that are created with the same language and style as the default.

The only difference from the classic config that contains all functions in one file, myExt separates it into 6 sub-folders for easier maintenance and usage. Each function is a separate file that is made into an "extension" package which and be added and removed. This style is focusing on the end-users and with a modern look and feel.

I made one new page on the Fvwm Extensions wiki on how to install the extensions on MX Linux. If any questions or is not clear, let me know and the page gets updated.

Thanks, I did a test on a fresh MX 21.3 by installing the test repo Fvwm3 and Extensions ver. 3.3.0 as per the guide. Works perfectly, and looks good. Been using these configs since beginning, is it two years??

Comments: From the guide, you can remove some of the packages that are installed by MX 21.3:
python3-xdg, yad, gawk, sed, x11-utils, volumeicon-alsa, and xfce4-appfinder
