xwmconfig(1)
NAME
xwmconfig - choose a default window manager for X.
SYNOPSIS
xwmconfig
DESCRIPTION
xwmconfig provides a menu of the window managers available
on the machine so that you may choose one of them to use
when X is started with "startx".
When run by root, it sets the symbolic link
/etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc, which selected the default systemwide window manager to use for X, and also creates a
/root/.xinitrc file with the same window manager selected
(perhaps suitable to move into /etc/skel/).
When run by a non-root user, xwmconfig writes out a
$HOME/.xinitrc file, allowing the user to choose their own
default window manager (possibly overriding the one chosen
as a system default).
