          • Any UNIX command. XFCE starts a shell script before executing your command.
          • If your command begins with the keyword module, it will spawned to FVWM. Therefore, you can start any FVWM module from XFCE.

            • Example :  To start the module FvwmPager whenever you click on the button, use the following syntax :

            module FvwmPager 0 3
