DeskMenu is a root menu program which is activated by
clicking the root window.
It is configured from a .deskmenurc file in your home
directory, see example_rc for more details.

You can use deskmenu for session management by making it the
last line of your .xinitrc and using the \-\-quit command line
option, which adds a quit option to the menu.

This manpage was written for the Debian GNU/Linux package of
this program by
Brandon L. Griffith <brandon@debian.org>
because the origonal program did not include one. You are
free to edit, translate, convert, or otherwise do anything
you wish with this manpage. This program was patched with a diff from Martin Hedenfalk <mhe@hjome.se> to allow submenu recursion.
Updated and added to the official deskmenu by
Stefan Pfetzing <dreamind@dreamind.de>
