The right file is .xinitrc which you can read about and customize.
I use fvwm and have the files
.fvwmrc
.xinitrc.fvwm
in my home directory. You would use .fvwm95rc or something like that.
I start X with the command
startx .xinitrc.fvwm
(or actually an alias to this so I don't have to type so much).
The .xinitrc.fvwm file looks like
if [ -f $HOME/.Xresources ]; then
xrdb -load $HOME/.Xresources
fi
# Set screen saver to occur after 5 minutes
xset s 300 &
xclock -g 40x40-5+0 -bw 0 &
xload -g 60x40+900+0 -bw 0 &
# Add xterm access from hosts chaos, peakie, elsie
xhost +chaos +peakie +elsie &
xterm -sb -sl 3000 -fn 10x20 -ls -g 80x40+159+147 &
# The next lines start xterms in the upper right corner of the
# virtual desktop
xterm -sb -sl 500 -j -ls -fn 10x20 -g 80x25+2800+70 &
xterm -sb -sl 500 -j -ls -fn 10x20 -g 80x25+2700+180 &
# Start fvwm now
fvwm
Try it.
