-
- I would like to be able to control some MWM menus from a system-wide
- configuration file while allowing the user to modify other menus. The
- way I do this now is I have a script the user can run that copies a
- .mwmrc file into their home directory concatenating a file called
- ~/.mwm_personal on to it.
-
- In the initial .mwmrc file I reference a menu name that should be
- defined in ~/.mwm_personal. As a result the user can maintain one
- menu and I can maintain the rest. The problem is that
- the user must run a script to keep up-to-date with my stuff.
-
- Is there a way to have MWM use more than one configuration file?
-
- Thanks.
