By default key binding for Exec Dialog is Meta (mod4) + F2,
and located on main root menu before
terminal i a "Exec" dialog. This is an input form for executing one-shot
commands without terminal. It has options to run command in terminal
($[infostore.terminal]
), and to remain open after executing commands for
subsequent commands. It has it's own command history which can be turned back
with cursor up and down keys. Escape key

If installed, NsCDE can use rofi(1) command and application launcher from the
keybinding Alt+F12 instead of built in Exec Dialog. For this to work,
InfoStore variable nscde_use_rofi
must be set to "1" in
$FVWM_USERDIR/NsCDE.conf
. Rofi is integrated with
NsCDE color theme and will be set up on the first use, which lasts 3 seconds
initially and after changing color theme with
Color Style Manager.
