NAME
smproxy - Session Manager Proxy
SYNOPSIS
smproxy [-clientId id] [-restore saveFile]
OPTIONS
-clientId id
Specifies the session ID used by smproxy in the pre-
vious session.
-restore saveFile
Specifies the file used by smproxy to save state in
the previous session.
DESCRIPTION
smproxy allows X applications that do not support X11R6 ses-
sion management to participate in an X11R6 session.
In order for smproxy to act as a proxy for an X application,
one of the following must be true:
- The application maps a top level window containing the
WM_CLIENT_LEADER property. This property provides a pointer
to the client leader window which contains the WM_CLASS,
WM_NAME, WM_COMMAND, and WM_CLIENT_MACHINE properties.
or ...
- The application maps a top level window which does not
contain the WM_CLIENT_LEADER property. However, this top
level window contains the WM_CLASS, WM_NAME, WM_COMMAND, and
WM_CLIENT_MACHINE properties.
An application that support the WM_SAVE_YOURSELF protocol
will receive a WM_SAVE_YOURSELF client message each time the
session manager issues a checkpoint or shutdown. This
allows the application to save state. If an application
does not support the WM_SAVE_YOURSELF protocol, then the
proxy will provide enough information to the session manager
to restart the application (using WM_COMMAND), but no state
will be restored.
