Hi @Quipyowert2

Hope you're well. I've come across a bug in fvwm3 which might be related to some of your recent work with memory-leak fixes.

If you've got the time, would you mind taking a look? The current configuration snippet below will cause fvwm3 to segfault. I don't have much time at the moment to investigate why, and I suspect you'll beat me to it anyway!

Here's the config:

DestroyModuleConfig FB-Page:*
*FB-Page: Rows 2
*FB-Page: Columns 2
*FB-Page: Back slateblue
*FB-Page: (1x1, Id "00", Title "0 0", Action "GotoPage $$[monitor.current] 0 0")
*FB-Page: (1x1, Id "10", Title "1 0", Action "GotoPage $$[monitor.current] 1 0")
*FB-Page: (1x1, Id "01", Title "0 1", Action "GotoPage $$[monitor.current] 0 1")
*FB-Page: (1x1, Id "11", Title "1 1", Action "GotoPage $$[monitor.current] 1 1")

Style FB-Page BorderWidth 4, !Handles

Module FvwmButtons FB-Page

If you save that as, say: ~/.fvwm/segfault-config, you can then use FvwmConsole to issue a read command, and watch fvwm3 crash:

Read segfault-config

I suspect the problem is in how that line is being expanded.

Thanks!
