CONFIGURATION
       The  key binding can be overridden or defined in fvwm module configura‐
       tion.

	      *FvwmConsole: Key \ck prev_line

       Non-space character sequence need not be quoted.	 In order to undefine,
       omit the last argument.

	      *FvwmConsole: Key \ck

       Note  that non-meta character is case sensitive.	 \c means control key,
       \e means escape, and \m is alt key.
       It also accepts Subst configuration. Users often input long  fvwm  com‐
       mand  repeatedly.  Subst will replace particular input sequence to user
       defined string. Example:

	      *FvwmConsole: Subst '^bigx' 'Exec xterm -g 120x60+0+0 -fn	 10x20
	      -fg black -bg lemonchiffon'

       Typing 'bigx<return>' in FvwmConsole will launch xterm. '^' denotes the
       beginning of line in regular expression.	 ´pl´ in  the  middle  of  the
       command	will  not be replaced. Although the format looks different, it
       takes Perl regular expression.  It just uses single or double quote  as
       the  delimiter.	 Single	 or double quotes have no difference, although
       they have to match, and cannot include itself in the string.

	      *FvwmConsole: Subst '^g\s*(\d+)' 'Desk 0 0\nGotoPage  0  $1\nFo‐
	      cus'

       Entering 'g4' or 'g  4' will jump to desk 0 page 0 4 and focus.

INVOCATION
       FvwmConsoleC.pl should be invoked by FvwmConsole.
