NAME

6       gnome-wm - Launches the user selected window manager for the GNOME ses‐
7       sion

SYNOPSIS

10       gnome-wm [--default-wm windowmanager] [--sm-client-id id]
11

DESCRIPTION

13       The gnome-wm script invokes the user selected window manager.   If  the
14       user  has  not chosen a window manager it will launch a GNOME compliant
15       window manager.
16
17       The user can overwrite the selection of a window manager by setting the
18       WINDOW_MANAGER environment variable.  If a --default-wm option is given
19       the script uses that window manager in case WINDOW_MANAGER is not set.
20
21       The script takes the --sm-client-id option and translates the id to  an
22       appropriate option depending on which window manager was selected.
23

ENVIRONMENT

25       The  gnome-wm  program uses the value of the WINDOW_MANAGER environment
26       variable to let the user override the configured window manager.
