Running exmh

[table of contents] [index]
The command to start exmh looks like this:
exmh -display hostname:0 &
If your DISPLAY environment variable is set up properly, then
you need not use -display,
and the command is even simpler.
You don't need to specify a -geometry argument,
although exmh supports one.
Instead, simply position and size the window using your window manager.
When exmh quits, it saves the geometry information of
all its top-level windows,
so you can adjust their positions once and forget about them.
You can add the exmh command to your startup X environment by
editing your startup file (like .xsession).
You might also want to add it to the main menu of your window manager.
The details about this vary from X system to X system, so ask
your local X guru for help.
exmh also supports the window manager
session protocol, which means that session-smart window managers
automatically start exmh for you.
