I suspect you can just add it to xinitrc like any other program. For example, when using twm: # Begin .xinitrc file xterm -g 80x40+0+0 & xclock -g 100x100-0+0 & exec twm I'm not sure how you would kill it on exit. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
