The quickest and easiest way to get Openbox up and running is to run the
following commands:
-# cd openbox-x.x.x
-# ./configure
-# make
-# su -c 'make install'
+% cd openbox-x.x.x
+% ./configure
+% make
+% su -c 'make install'
This will configure, compile and install Openbox the quickest. For those
who like to spend the extra 15 seconds reading ./configure --help, some
Also in the data/ directory is a file named `menu'. This is meant as an
example but is also installed if make install detects that no menu exists.
If openbox is ever started without a valid menu the user will get a backup
-menu which gives the ability to launch and xterm and exit the window manager.
+menu which gives the ability to launch a xterm and exit the window manager.
For information on creating/editing a menu, see the file README.menu.
