.TH LOGOUT-BUTTON 1
.\" NAME should be all caps, SECTION should be 1-8, maybe w/ subsection
.\" other parms are allowed: see man(7), man(1)
.SH NAME
logout-button \- creates button which is used with an appropriate .xsession
to terminate the user's session.
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B logout-button
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
This manual page documents briefly the
.BR logout-button
command.
.PP
.B logout-button
puts up a button on your screen, which exits when pressed. If set up
correctly, the exiting of the logout-button will cause the X Display Manager
to end the session that was started by logging in.
.SH OPTIONS
.B logout-button
has no command line options whatsoever.
.SH SETUP
To use with the example provided: First, copy the example .xsession file
into your home directory, making sure it's named .xsession. Make it
executable. Next, edit it to taste, starting any desired clients in the
background. Be sure to choose your favorite window manager. That should be it!
You might try without editing first; if problems come up, you can log in
on a text console and look at the file .xsession-errors to see what might
have gone wrong.
Note! If you later get something else to act as your session manager,
you can still use the .xsession, just replace the "exec logout-button"
with "exec <yourSessionManager>".
For example, Gnome has a session manager called gnome-session, so you
could replace the exec line with "exec gnome-session".
