Read


Read filename [quiet]

Causes fvwm to read commands from the file named filename. If the keyword Quiet follows the command no message is produced if the file is not found. If the file name does not begin with a slash ('/'), fvwm looks in the user's data directory, then the system data directory. The user's data directory is by default $HOME/.fvwm. It can be overridden by exporting FVWM_USERDIR set to any other directory. The Read command returns 1 if the given file could be read or -1 if not (see the section Conditional Commands for the meaning of return codes).
