NAME

       gnome-wm  -  Launches  the  user  selected window manager for the GNOME
       session

SYNOPSIS

       gnome-wm [--default-wm windowmanager] [--sm-client-id id]

DESCRIPTION

       The gnome-wm script invokes the user selected window manager.   If  the
       user  has  not chosen a window manager it will launch a GNOME compliant
       window manager.

       The user can overwrite the selection of a window manager by setting the
       WINDOW_MANAGER environment variable.  If a --default-wm option is given
       the script uses that window manager in case WINDOW_MANAGER is not  set.

       The  script takes the --sm-client-id option and translates the id to an
       appropriate option depending on which window manager was selected.

ENVIRONMENT

       The gnome-wm program uses the value of the  WINDOW_MANAGER  environment
       variable to let the user override the configured window manager.
