SWITCHDESK (1)

graphical and text mode interface for choosing desktop environment

SYNOPSIS

    switchdesk [desktop name]

DESCRIPTION

    switchdesk provides a simple method of choosing between the various desktop environments available under Red Hat Linux, including GNOME, KDE, and "AnotherLevel," which is the traditional fvwm window manager-based configuration. If X Windows is running, switchdesk will bring up a dialog box which allows the user to choose between the available desktops installed on the system. This dialog follows the appearance of the user's current desktop as closely as possible. If a desktop name (KDE, GNOME, AnotherLevel) is supplied as an argument, or X is not running, switchdesk can be used from the command line.

RETURN CODES

    switchdesk returns 0 on success, 1 on error.

FILES

    ~/.Xclients, ~/.Xclients-default

      Stores the currently selected desktop.
