NAME
     fvwm-bug - report a bug in fvwm

SYNOPSIS
     fvwm-bug [--help] [--version] [address]

DESCRIPTION
     fvwm-bug  is  a  shell script to help the user compose and mail bug reports
     concerning fvwm in a standard format.  fvwm-bug invokes the  editor  speci-
     fied  by the environment variable EDITOR on a temporary copy of the bug re-
     port format outline. The user must fill in the appropriate fields and  exit
     the  editor.   fvwm-bug  then  mails the completed report to the local fvwm
     maintainer, the fvwm workers list fvwm-workers@fvwm.org,  or  address.   If
     the  report  cannot be mailed, it is saved in the file dead.fvwm-bug in the
     invoking user's home directory.

     The bug report format outline consists of several sections.  The first sec-
     tion provides information about the machine,  operating  system,  the  fvwm
     version,  and  the  compilation  environment.  The second section should be
     filled in with a description of the bug.  The third section should be a de-
     scription of how to reproduce the bug.  The optional fourth section is  for
     a proposed fix.  Fixes are encouraged.

ENVIRONMENT
     fvwm-bug will utilize the following environment variables if they exist:

     EDITOR
	    Specifies  the  preferred editor. If EDITOR is not set, fvwm-bug de-
	    faults to emacs.

     HOME   Directory in which the failed bug report is saved if the mail fails.
