~/.fvwm2rc95 is never called during the X-window manager start-up
sequence (I do not have a ~/.fvwm95rc2). The order of program execution
is:
/usr/bin/startx
xinit /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit/xinitrc
~/.Xclients
fvwm95-2 -f "FvwmM4 -debug /etc/X11/TheNextLevel/.fvwm2rc.m4"
Therefore, .fvwm2rc.m4 should hold the configuration information, but I
can't find where fonts are being set and the window arrangement in being
chosen within this file.

How do I specify the default rules. This file already contains
definitions for FontAndLabel [tiny:huge] which look good. How do I tell
X-windows to use large and not tiny?
