-.TH "OPENBOX" "1"
-.SH "NAME"
-openbox \(em Next generation, highly configurable window manager
-
-.SH "SYNOPSIS"
-.PP
-\fBopenbox\fR [\fB\-\-help\fP] [\fB\-\-version\fP] [\fB\-\-replace\fP] [\fB\-\-reconfigure\fP] [\fB\-\-sm-disable\fP] [\fB\-\-sync\fP] [\fB\-\-debug\fP] [\fB\-\-debug-focus\fP] [\fB\-\-debug-xinerama\fP]
-.SH "DESCRIPTION"
-.PP
-Openbox is a next generation, highly
-configurable window manager. Openbox is compliant with the
-latest window manager standards.
-.PP
-You can start Openbox in three ways:
-.PP
-If you run a display manager such as GDM, you will find 3 entries
-in the login session type menu for Openbox:
-\fBGNOME/Openbox\fR, \fBKDE/Openbox\fR and \fBOpenbox\fR. 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.
-.PP
-If you don't want to run Openbox within a desktop environment, then
-it is recommended that you instead set up a ~/.xsession file and
-use the \fBDefault\fR session type. The ~/.xsession file
-should start any applications you want to run at startup, and then run
-\fBopenbox\fR at the end, such as:
-.PP
-.RS
-.PP
-.nf
-xsetroot \-solid grey &
-gnome-settings-daemon &
-exec \fBopenbox\fR
-.fi
-.RE
-.PP
-Lastly, if you use \fBstartx\fR to launch your X
-session, you should set up a ~/.xinitrc file, exactly the same as the
-above ~/.xsession file.
-.PP
-You can use the \fBobconf\fR 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
-\fBobconf\fR older than version 2.0 may not work at all
-for you.
-.PP
-The default configuration files are installed in
-@configdir@/openbox/rc.xml, and the user configuration is placed in
-~/.config/openbox/rc.xml. You can copy the default configuration
-to ~/.config/openbox and edit it to your liking.
-.SH "OPTIONS"
-.PP
-These are the possible options that \fBopenbox\fR accepts:
-.IP "\fB\-\-help\fP" 10
-Show a summary of the options available.
-.IP "\fB\-\-version\fP" 10
-Show the version of the program.
-.IP "\fB\-\-replace\fP" 10
-Replace the currently running window manager.
-.IP "\fB\-\-reconfigure\fP" 10
-If Openbox is already running on the display, tell it to
-reload its configuration.
-.IP "\fB\-\-sm-disable\fP" 10
-Do not connect to the session manager.
-.IP "\fB\-\-sync\fP" 10
-Run in synchronous mode (for debugging).
-.IP "\fB\-\-debug\fP" 10
-Display debugging output.
-.IP "\fB\-\-debug-focus\fP" 10
-Display debugging output for focus handling.
-.IP "\fB\-\-debug-xinerama\fP" 10
-Split the display into two fake xinerama regions, if
-xinerama is not already enabled. This is for debugging
-xinerama support.
-.SH "SEE ALSO"
-.PP
-obconf (1), openbox-gnome-session (1), openbox-kde-session (1).
