You can still start an xterm on page 0 0 just after your special appz.
Starting an xterm is not really blocking on page 0 0, and you'll get the focus on that page.

[edit]OK, you're right, this solution is not one of the best idea i ever got

try setting Style <app> NoGrabFocus
that may not be the right setting, but it is the basic idea, and is a more appropriate method, although if there are also applications you want on page 0 0, then starting them afterwards, and perhaps selecting one of them to grab the focus in the same manner, would certainly solve your problem

Hi,

thx for your answers. I will try the NoGrapFocus tag when i am back home.

Right now i am still pretty new to FVWM and just trying to get an idea of what is possible... the answer seems to be: Everything.

I love it and thanks again.

Hi there,

just tried NoGrabFocus out.

Any other tips??

Here is my style

Just for some other people having the same problem. Seems like an & at the end of the line is enough. Will try at home.

For example:
