fvwm_converter --input ~/.fvwm/FvwmTabs.pl --output ~/.fvwm/fvwmtabs.py - Parses FvwmTabs Perl syntax and translates core functions
- Generates Python classes for FVWM modules and menu definitions
- Preserves comments and original structure where possible
- Outputs runnable Python 3 code with standard library imports
- Includes a validation mode to check translation accuracy
- Works with standard FVWM scripting constructs and window manager automation patterns
