Kise is updated (1.8.2) with improved startup, XDG Menu, and Keyboard language switch. Also, now Fvwm myExtentions (collection of configs) works with Kise. For example, the Work Virtual Pager config in Fvwm Kise looks and works great. Instead of using the WorkDesk for all, WVP does well for small daily work. I like it.

Did you make this, since it is in community submissions, or is this a review with a request to add it as a package?

This is Rasat's Fvwm project made of individual scripts instead of the classic single config style. Just a zip file to be installed in home/<user>/.fvwm. Not a package but script sharing. Rasat can tell more about it.

It is ok for anyone to announce the version updates. It's faster. :happy: As Mjaakko said, this is script sharing.

It is starting to have everything that I have had in mind. I did more fixes, lowered memory usage, and the Page Indicator got a new system by replacing Menu with FvwmEvent FE. The Desk and Page numbers appear automatically when there is a change.

New version 1.9.1

It would be great to have one video. In Kise, there are so many interesting functions that may be unknown to users. I am still exploring. ;)

v2.0.1 is great update.

Sorry for asking again. I like the videos you made for myExt (two years ago). Kise is new and very different.

Thanks to a few active users, modules were improved fixing a missing focus command and a poorly applied deiconify code.

Here is version 2.0.3.

Improvements:
- "Iconify all" on-off button
- Focus on selected deiconify window
- Various minor fixes
