| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ==Desktops==
| + | |
| − | Choose your desktop with {{file|~/.xsession}}:
| + | |

| + | |
| − | exec /usr/local/bin/<windowmanager>
| + | |
| − | exec $1

| − | ==Desktop programs==
| + | |
| − | Desktop programs start up through the window manager's configuration files, and not through {{file|~/.xsession}}.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Be sure you install the programs you need such as {{port|x11/xterm}}, since this is a minimal install to be further customized.
