<title>DESCRIPTION</title>
<para>Openbox is minimalistic, highly configurable, next generation window
manager with extensive standards support.</para>
<para>You can start Openbox in three ways:</para>
<para>If you run a display manager such as GDM, you will find 3 entries
in the login session type menu for Openbox:
<command>GNOME/Openbox</command>, <command>KDE/Openbox</command>
and <command>Openbox</command>. 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.</para>
<para>The third option at log in, which is <command>Openbox</command>
without a session manager, uses the <command>openbox-session</command>
command to start Openbox. On log in, <command>&dhpackage;</command> will
run the ~/.config/openbox/autostart.sh script if it exists, and will run
the system-wide script @configdir@/openbox/autostart.sh otherwise. You
may place anything you want to run automatically in those files, for
example:
</para>
<blockquote><literallayout>
xsetroot -solid grey &
gnome-settings-daemon &</literallayout></blockquote>
<para>Make sure that each line is followed by a "&" or else the script will
stop there and further commands will not be executed. You can use the
@configdir@/openbox/autostart.sh file as an example for creating your
own.</para>
<para>The default @configdir@/openbox/autostart.sh runs a number of things
with Openbox.</para>
<para>Lastly, if you use <command>startx</command> to launch your X
session, you can set up a ~/.xinitrc file to run
<command>openbox-session</command> and follow the same directions as
above regarding the autostart.sh file.</para>
<para>You can use the <command>obconf</command> tool to configure Openbox
easily with a graphical interface, however more in-depth configuration
is possible by editing the configuration files by hand.</para>
<para>The default configuration and menu files are installed in
@configdir@/openbox/, and the user configuration is placed in
~/.config/openbox/. You can copy the default configuration and menus
to ~/.config/openbox and edit it to your liking.</para>
