You could not find the config files? Maybe you were looking in wrong
places - the location depends upon the method you used to install
IceWM.
In a plain vanilla source install, the global version of the files
will be located in /usr/local/lib/Xll/icewm/. If you installed the
standard RPM, they will be in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/icewm/ or
/usr/local/share/icewm. The system wide configuration files for the
Debian package seem to be in /etc/X11/icewm/.
However, if you wish to make a configuration of your own you should
not edit these global config files but create a subdirectory of your
home directory called ~/.icewm/. Copy the system wide files to your
local .icewm directory and edit these copies.
