icewm-session is an implementation of a X.Org session manager and can be
run from a X11 session setup. It runs \fBicewm\fR as default window manager
and controls the life cycle of related support applications.

Use \fI\s-1DISPLAY\s0\fR to connect to the X server.
If this option is missing then \fI\s-1DISPLAY\s0\fR
is read from the environment variable \f(CW\*(C`DISPLAY\*(C'\fR.

Thoroughly examines the execution of icewm.
.IP "\fB\-g\fR, \fB\-\-\-catchsegv\fR" 4
.IX Item "-g, ---catchsegv"
Let \f(CW\*(C`/usr/bin/catchsegv\*(C'\fR run icewm.
Gives a backtrace if icewm segfaults.
.SS "\s-1USAGE\s0"
.IX Subsection "USAGE"
On startup icewm-session executes the following steps.
From the file \fIenv\fR in the configuration directory
it loads additional environment variables, if that file exists.
Then it will start \fIicewmbg\fR to manage root background colors and images.
It may also start \fIicesound\fR, if this was enabled at configuration time.
Then \fIicewm\fR is started.
.PP
If there exists an executable script \fIstartup\fR in the configuration
directory, it will be executed. It may contain commands to initialize X11
settings with \fIxset\fR, load keyboard configuration, start a compositing
manager like \fIcompton\fR and load system tray applications.
.PP
When icewm exits, icewm-session will execute a \fIshutdown\fR script,
if it exists in the configuration directory.
When this finishes, icewm-session will terminate icewm, icewmbg
and icesound. Finally, icewm-session will exit.
.PP
If the icewm process crashes then icewm-session will attempt to restart
it. If two such crashes occur in a short period, then icewm-session will
attempt to popup a dialog using either \fIyad\fR, \fIxmessage\fR, \fIkdialog\fR
or \fIzenity\fR. This dialog presents a choice between restarting icewm,
starting a terminal, or abort execution of icewm-session.
.SS "\s-1ENVIRONMENT\s0"
.IX Subsection "ENVIRONMENT"
.IP "\fB\s-1ICEWM_OPTIONS\s0\fR" 4
.IX Item "ICEWM_OPTIONS"
A space separated list of options which will be added to the command
line invocation of \fIicewm\fR. This can be set in the \fIenv\fR file.
