DESCRIPTION

21       smproxy allows X applications that do not support X11R6 session manage‐
22       ment to participate in an X11R6 session.
23
24       In order for smproxy to act as a proxy for an X application, one of the
25       following must be true:
26
27       -   The   application   maps   a   top   level  window  containing  the
28       WM_CLIENT_LEADER property.  This property provides  a  pointer  to  the
29       client  leader window which contains the WM_CLASS, WM_NAME, WM_COMMAND,
30       and WM_CLIENT_MACHINE properties.
31
32       or ...
33
34       - The application maps a top level window which does  not  contain  the
35       WM_CLIENT_LEADER property.  However, this top level window contains the
36       WM_CLASS, WM_NAME, WM_COMMAND, and WM_CLIENT_MACHINE properties.
37
38       An application that support the WM_SAVE_YOURSELF protocol will  receive
39       a  WM_SAVE_YOURSELF client message each time the session manager issues
40       a checkpoint or shutdown.  This allows the application to  save  state.
41       If  an application does not support the WM_SAVE_YOURSELF protocol, then
42       the proxy will provide enough information to  the  session  manager  to
43       restart  the  application  (using  WM_COMMAND),  but  no  state will be
44       restored.
