<para>Or alternatively, if you use a login manager like

like to be able to choose <application>Fluxbox</application> at the login

<para>Menu items are added by editing <filename>~/.fluxbox/menu</filename>.
|
|
The syntax is explained on the <command>fluxbox</command> man page.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If you want to use an image as your desktop background, copy the
|
|
theme you like into <filename class='directory'>~/.fluxbox</filename>.
|
|
Then add a line to make it use the correct image. In the following command,
|
|
change <replaceable><theme></replaceable> for the name of the theme you
|
|
want and change <replaceable></path/to/nice/image.xpm></replaceable> to
|
|
point to the actual image you want to use.</para>
|
|
|
|
<screen><userinput>cp /usr/share/fluxbox/styles/<theme> ~/.fluxbox/theme &&
|
|
sed -i 's,\(session.styleFile:\).*,\1 ~/.fluxbox/theme,' ~/.fluxbox/init &&
|
|
echo "background.pixmap: </path/to/nice/image.xpm>" >> ~/.fluxbox/theme</userinput></screen>
|
|
|
|
<para>In some locales the font specified in the theme may not contain the
|
|
needed characters. This results in menus with blank items. You can fix
|
|
this by editing <filename>~/.fluxbox/theme</filename> with a text editor
|
|
and altering it so that it names a suitable font.</para>
