Thanks I'll try this but I still have some questions...

Which version should I get? The 0.9.12 version announced today? Or the
SVN version?

Will this use the settings in ~/.fluxbox? or the settings
in /path/to/the/selfcompiled/fluxbox/?
Or should I specify another dir with the -rc option?

Am I wrong to assume settings such as
session.screen0.workspaces:     6
will be ignored because of the "screen0"?

Can I backup ~/.fluxbox while running fluxbox? Should I reload the
config first?

TIA
