SYNOPSIS

10       switchdesk [desktop name]

DESCRIPTION

13       switchdesk provides a simple method of  choosing  between  the  various
14       desktop  environments  available  under Red Hat Linux, including GNOME,
15       KDE, and FVWM2.  If X Windows is running, switchdesk will  bring  up  a
16       dialog  box which allows the user to choose between the available desk‐
17       tops installed on the system.  This dialog follows  the  appearance  of
18       the  user's  current  desktop as closely as possible. If a desktop name
19       (KDE, GNOME, XFce4, FVWM, WINDOWMAKER) is supplied as an argument, or X
20       is not running, switchdesk can be used from the command line.
