miwm-session(1)

miwm-session1

Start up the miwm window manager

Usage

miwm-session [option]

Overview

As MIWM does not have any meny by default to start external programs, this file starts by default one x-terminal-emulator(1) program with the window manager. See section FILES.

This program is designed to be used by GDM (etc) from /usr/share/xsessions/miwm.desktop and therefore this program does not exit until Window Manager exists.

Options

-h, --help

Display brief description.

-V, --version

Display version information.

Environment

None.

Files

$HOME/.miwm/session

If file exists, it is executed using /bin/sh after the window manager starts. This file inhibits starting the default x-terminal-emulator(1).
