Well, reading the manual page I'm not yet quite sure it fits my needs:

My taskbar

  - features three more buttons in addition to the "Start Menu" button,

  - features a digital clock which shows the date as tooltip,

  - and most importantly it automatically hides.

While I think I could also provide the buttons  via module "FvwmButtons"
and could use  a separate digital clock application,  I did neither find
an "AutoHide" specification for "FvwmIconMan" nor for "FvwmButtons".

And auto hiding of the taskbar is crucial for my various fullscreen app-
lications running each in a separate desktop page.

Any suggestions?

And while we're at it, here's a list of other Fvwm modules important for
me:

   FvwmAuto
   FvwmConsole
   FvwmForm
   FvwmIdent
   FvwmPager
   FvwmWinlist

Are all of these still available in Fvwm 2.6.9 and not yet deprecated?

Sincerely,
  Rainer
