Hehe, Meilos post just made me aware of the clever sentence you made here, I assumed your english just sucks and interpreted it obviously wrong. Really a nice sentence and yeah I just realized that in 20100118185636.gc6...@ngolde.de I was saying exec dwm instead of exec startx, grr :) Ofc it is about execing into startx...
