NAME

   smproxy - Session Manager Proxy

SYNOPSIS

   smproxy [-clientId id] [-restore saveFile] [-version]

OPTIONS

   -clientId id
           Specifies  the  session  ID  used  by  smproxy  in the previous
           session.

   -restore saveFile
           Specifies the file  used  by  smproxy  to  save  state  in  the
           previous session.

   -version
           Prints the program version and exits.

DESCRIPTION

   smproxy  allows  X  applications  that  do  not  support  X11R6 session
   management to participate in an X11R6 session.

   In order for smproxy to act as a proxy for an X application, one of the
   following must be true:

   -   The   application   maps   a   top   level  window  containing  the
   WM_CLIENT_LEADER property.  This property provides  a  pointer  to  the
   client  leader window which contains the WM_CLASS, WM_NAME, WM_COMMAND,
   and WM_CLIENT_MACHINE properties.

   or ...

   - The application maps a top level window which does  not  contain  the
   WM_CLIENT_LEADER property.  However, this top level window contains the
   WM_CLASS, WM_NAME, WM_COMMAND, and WM_CLIENT_MACHINE properties.

   An application that support the WM_SAVE_YOURSELF protocol will  receive
   a  WM_SAVE_YOURSELF client message each time the session manager issues
   a checkpoint or shutdown.  This allows the application to  save  state.
   If  an application does not support the WM_SAVE_YOURSELF protocol, then
   the proxy will provide enough information to  the  session  manager  to
   restart  the  application  (using  WM_COMMAND),  but  no  state will be
   restored.
