.SH "NAME"
startfluxbox \- start a fluxbox session
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.sp
\fBstartfluxbox\fR
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.sp
\fBstartfluxbox\fR is a script which runs the file \fB\e~/\&.fluxbox/startup\fR If it doesn\(cqt exist it will be generated\&.
.sp
\fBstartfluxbox\fR should be started from your \fB~/\&.xinitrc\fR if you use startx, or \fB\e~/\&.xsession\fR if you run a display manager, like xdm\&.
.SH "FILES"
.PP
\fB\e~/\&.fluxbox/startup\fR
.RS 4
This file contains all commands that should be executed before fluxbox is started\&. The initial file contains helpful comments for beginners\&. It also starts fluxbox\&.
.RE
.SH "EXAMPLES"
.sp
The default \fB\e~/\&.fluxbox/startup\fR is as follows:
.sp
.if n \{\
.RS 4
.\}
.nf
#!/bin/sh
#
# fluxbox startup\-script:
#
# Lines starting with a \*(Aq#\*(Aq are ignored\&.
# Change your keymap:
xmodmap "$HOME/\&.Xmodmap"
# Applications you want to run with fluxbox\&.
# MAKE SURE THAT APPS THAT KEEP RUNNING HAVE AN \*(Aq\*(Aq&\*(Aq\*(Aq AT THE END\&.
#
# unclutter \-idle 2 &
# wmnd &
# wmsmixer \-w &
# idesk &
# And last but not least we start fluxbox\&.
# Because it is the last app you have to run it with \*(Aq\*(Aqexec\*(Aq\*(Aq before it\&.
exec fluxbox
# or if you want to keep a log:
# exec fluxbox \-log "$fluxdir/log"
.fi
.if n \{\
.RE
.\}
.sp
If you need to start applications after fluxbox, you can change the \fBexec fluxbox\fR line above to something like this:
.sp
.if n \{\
.RS 4
.\}
.nf
exec fluxbox &
fbpid=$!
sleep 1
{
xsetroot \-cursor_name left_ptr \-fg white \-bg black &
ipager &
gkrellm2 &
} &
wait $fbpid
.fi
.if n \{\
.RE
.\}
.sp
So xsetroot, ipager, and gkrellm2 will all be started after fluxbox, after giving fluxbox 1 second to startup\&.
.sp
For more details on what else you can do in this script, see \fBsh(1p)\fR, or the documentation for your shell\&.
.SH "ONLINE DOCUMENTATION"
.PP
