Starting Workspace Manager

Session Manager is responsible for starting Workspace Manager. By default /usr/dt/bin/dtwm is started. An alternate window manager can be specified with the wmStartupCommand resource.

You can specify an alternate window manager for all users by creating /etc/dt/config/language/sys.resources and specifying the full path name and options for the window manager with the Dtsession*wmStartupCommand resource in that file.

Users can similarly specify an alternate window manager for their own sessions only by specifying the Dtsession*wmStartupCommand resource in HomeDirectory/.Xdefaults.

For more information about the Window Manager, see Chapter 16, Customizing the Workspace Manager.
