I don't think this is right...I've fiddled a lot with window managers, and I switch them ``mid-flight'' quite a bit. (Since I have an xterm as the final exec'd command, killing my window manager doesn't end my x session.) If what you're saying is true, every time I switch window managers, all my windows would die, effectively ending the session. Needless to say, this doesn't happen. -alan -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Trouble? e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
