Charles Hines:
Contributed some patches in the early days of fvwm.  Later took over
maintenance of fvwm2 after Rob Nation, the original author of fvwm, decided to
"retire".  Made a fair amount of changes and fixes, and incorporated changes
and fixes from numerous people all over the net.  Did this from about August
of 1995 until May of 1998 when he came to the realization that he didn't have
enough time to properly devote to it and decided to "retire" himself, handing
Brady Montz the torch.  Shortly thereafter is when fvwm became "ruled by
committee" and this previous fvwm dictator is now happy to see fvwm surviving
and thriving with this new development methodology (and may even contribute
again himself, someday).

Echo. Improve modules: Make FvwmM4 pass args on to m4, font-related
seg-fault bug fix in FvwmButtons.
