<para>If <application>IceWM</application> is the only Window Manager
|
|
you want to use, you can start it with an <filename>.xinitrc</filename>

file in your home folder. Be sure to backup your

current <filename>.xinitrc</filename> before proceeding.</para>

<para>Now create the <application>IceWM</application> configuration

files:</para>

cp -v /usr/share/icewm/keys ~/.icewm/keys &&

cp -v /usr/share/icewm/winoptions ~/.icewm/winoptions</userinput></screen>
|
|
|
|
<para>You can now edit these files to meet your requirements. In particular,
|
|
review the <filename>preferences</filename> file. You can use
|
|
<command>Logout -> Restart-IceWM</command> on the main menu to load your
|
|
changed preferences, but changes to the background only take effect when
|
|
<application>IceWM</application> is started.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The syntax of the menus is explained in the help files, which you
|
|
can access by running <command>help</command> from the menu, but some of
|
|
the detail is out of date and the default selections in the menus (a few
|
|
old applications on the main menu, everything else on the
|
|
<command>Programs</command> menu) will benefit from being updated to meet
|
|
your needs. The following examples are provided to encourage you to think
|
|
about how you wish to organise your menus. Please note the following:</para>
|
|
|
|
<itemizedlist>
|
|
<listitem>
|
|
<para>If a program listed in the menu has not been installed, it will
|
|
not appear when the menu is displayed. Similarly, if the program
|
|
exists but the specified icon does not, no icon will be displayed in the
|
|
menu.</para>
|
|
</listitem>
|
|
<listitem>
|
|
<para>The icons can be either <filename>.xpm</filename> or
|
|
<filename>.png</filename> files, and there is no need to specify the
|
|
extension. If the icon is located in the "library"
|
|
(<filename class="directory">/usr/share/icewm/icons</filename>) there is
|
|
no need to specifiy the path.</para>
|
|
</listitem>
|
|
<listitem>
|
|
<para>Most programs are in sub-menus, and the main menu will always append
|
|
entries for <literal>windows, help, settings, logout</literal> at the
|
|
bottom.</para>

</listitem>

<listitem>

<para>An icon for <application>firefox</application> was copied to the

was installed to a pixmap directory.</para>

<para>If you wish to put icons on your desktop, you will need to install a
|
|
program such as <xref linkend="rox-filer"/> which provides a pinboard. If you
|
|
do that you will no longer be able to access the menu by right-clicking on the
|
|
desktop, you will have to use the <application>IceWM</application> button. To
|
|
ensure that the <application>rox</application> pinboard is running, the
|
|
following commands will put it in the startup file:</para>
|

<screen role="nodump"><userinput>cat > ~/.icewm/startup << "EOF"
