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: manpage.1: manpage.sgml docbook-to-man $< > $@ 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. --> 1"> OPENBOX"> ]> &dhucpackage; &dhsection; &dhpackage; Next generation, highly configurable window manager &dhpackage; DESCRIPTION Openbox is a next generation, highly configurable window manager. Openbox is compliant with the latest window manager standards. You can start Openbox in three ways: If you run a display manager such as GDM, you will find 3 entries in the login session type menu for Openbox: GNOME/Openbox, KDE/Openbox and Openbox. 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. The third option at log in, which is Openbox without a session manager, uses the openbox-session command to start Openbox. On log in, &dhpackage; will run the ~/.config/openbox/autostart.sh script if it exists, and will run the system-wide script @configdir@/openbox/autostart.sh otherwise. You may place anything you want to run automatically in those files, for example:
xsetroot -solid grey & gnome-settings-daemon &
Make sure that each line is followed by a "&" or else the script will stop there and further commands will not be executed. You can use the @configdir@/openbox/autostart.sh file as an example for creating your own. The default @configdir@/openbox/autostart.sh runs a number of things with Openbox. Lastly, if you use startx to launch your X session, you can set up a ~/.xinitrc file to run openbox-session and follow the same directions as above regarding the autostart.sh file. You can use the obconf tool to configure Openbox easily with a graphical interface, however more in-depth configuration is possible by editing the configuration files by hand. Please note that obconf older than version 2.0 may not work at all for you. The default configuration and menu files are installed in @configdir@/openbox/, and the user configuration is placed in ~/.config/openbox/. You can copy the default configuration and menus to ~/.config/openbox and edit it to your liking. OPTIONS These are the possible options that &dhpackage; accepts: Show a summary of the options available. Show the version of the program. Replace the currently running window manager. If Openbox is already running on the display, tell it to reload its configuration. Do not connect to the session manager. Run in synchronous mode (for debugging). Display debugging output. Display debugging output for focus handling. Split the display into two fake xinerama regions, if xinerama is not already enabled. This is for debugging xinerama support.
