<!-- Process this file with docbook-to-man to generate an nroff manual

page: `docbook-to-man manpage.sgml > manpage.1'. You may view
|
|
the manual page with: `docbook-to-man manpage.sgml | nroff -man |
|

less'. A typical entry in a Makefile or Makefile.am is:

The docbook-to-man binary is found in the docbook-to-man package.

Please remember that if you create the nroff version in one of the

debian/rules file targets (such as build), you will need to include
|
|
docbook-to-man in your Build-Depends control field.

<title>DESCRIPTION</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>Openbox is a next generation, highly
|
|
configurable window manager. Openbox is compliant with the
|
|
latest window manager standards.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>You can start Openbox in three ways:</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If you run a display manager such as GDM, you will find 3 entries
|
|
in the login session type menu for Openbox:
|
|
<command>GNOME/Openbox</command>, <command>KDE/Openbox</command>
|
|
and <command>Openbox</command>. If you want to use Openbox
|
|
within GNOME or KDE, you can choose the appropriate entry, and it will
|
|
launch GNOME or KDE with Openbox as the window manager.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If you don't want to run Openbox withing a desktop environment, then
|
|
it is recommended that you instead set up a ~/.xsession file and
|
|
use the <command>Default</command> session type. The ~/.xsession file
|
|
should any applications you want to run at startup, and then run
|
|
<command>&dhpackage;</command> at the end, such as:</para>
|
|
|
|
<blockquote><literallayout>
|
|
xsetroot -solid grey &
|
|
gnome-settings-daemon &
|
|
exec <command>&dhpackage;</command></literallayout></blockquote>
|
|
|
|
<para>Lastly, if you use <command>startx</command> to launch your X
|
|
session, you should set up a ~/.xinitrc file, exactly the same as the
|
|
above ~/.xsession file.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>You can use the <command>obconf</command> tool to configure Openbox
|
|
easily with a graphical interface, however more in-depth configuration
|
|
is possible by editing the configuration files by hand. The default
|
|
configuration files are installed in @configdir@/openbox/, and the
|
|
user configuration is placed in ~/.config/openbox/. You can copy
|
|
the default configuration to ~/.config/openbox and edit it to your
|
|
liking.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>There are 3 default configuration files, <literal>rc.xml</literal>,
|
|
<literal>rc-gnome.xml</literal>, and <literal>rc-kde.xml</literal>. The
|
|
rc-gnome.xml is used when you run
|
|
<command>openbox-gnome-session</command> and the rc-kde.xml is used when
|
|
you run <command>openbox-kde-session</command>. The configuration
|
|
files should be named the same in ~/.config/openbox/.</para>
