FVWM: Is FVWM mult-threaded?

[m***@crosswire.com]

Howdy,

I've got a problem with a script. I'm Pipereading a menu, which queries
an environment variable in FVWM using FvwmCommand to determin how to
output the menu data.

So it goes: FVWM->Piperead->Script->Fvwmcommand

FVWM appears to be blocking. (The script doesn't block, and appears to
timeout waiting on Fvwmcommand)

So FVWM is not multithreaded?

Thanks!

Not in this case.

Modules run asynchronous but not PipeRead.

You should pass variables through the PipeRead command.
Maybe if you gave more information about what you want to do.
