Where can I get a large collection of background textures (xpm files) for
use on the root window?

Thanks,
Vikas

Do a web search on backgrounds.

The Daily Root on Themes.org

The Daily Root is a nice place, and every day a new root image is added...
some of them (like the missile one for 19980817) are especially nice when
stretched to fit your screen and dithered to black and white.

How might I save the order of my windows and then have fvwm return my
windows to this order with a single command? If new windows are
existent, I'd like them behind the ones listed in the saved order, and
if some of the window in the saved order are no longer existent, I'd
like such entries to be ignored.

I'm guessing this will take some programming. I'm an utter novice at
fvwm programming so any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Alan
