Documentation
Tips
Startup/shutdown actions
- Install a script (executable!) called ~/.icewm/startup or ~/.icewm/shutdown
Personalisations
- Just copy anything from /usr/share/icewm or /etc/X11/icewm to ~/.icewm and modify it locally.
- You can use iceme to modify easily the menus (copy /etc/X11/icewm/keys to be able to edit the keybindings)
- You can use icepref to modify your preferences
- See the links above for tips & tricks
Background
- it's easier to use xsetbg from xloadimage package
- do that from ~/.icewm/startup script
xsetbg -fullscreen <full path to jpeg image>
Icons
- one nice way is to use apwal (the author is French, comprendra qui pourra :-)
- No way to bind apwal to right-click under icewm, bind it to a a key combination instead
Gkrell
apt-get install gkrellmwireless gkrellm-x86info
You can launch it from ~/.icewm/startup with e.g.:
pgrep gkrellm >/dev/null || (gkrellm &)
