man ivman-launch (Administration système) - launch script for Ivman

NAME

ivman-launch - launch script for Ivman

SYNOPSIS

ivman-launch [ --exit-with-session <cmd> " ] [ OPTIONS ]

DESCRIPTION

ivman-launch is a simple script used to launch Ivman. Its sole purpose is to ensure Ivman is closed at the end of a user's login session. You can use it if your session manager does not properly close Ivman when you log out.

ivman-launch supports the same command-line options as Ivman, and one additional option: --exit-with-session. Thus, there is no point using ivman-launch if you do not need to use this option.

OPTIONS

--exit-with-session <cmd>
ivman-launch will block until the command 'cmd' terminates, at which point it will kill Ivman and exit itself. If the command 'cmd' is not running when ivman-launch is started, Ivman will exit immediately. Note that this option implies Ivman will be called with the '--nofork' option.

EXAMPLE

The following command in an ~/.xinitrc file would cause Ivman to launch in the background when your session begins, and exit when your session ends:

ivman-launch --exit-with-session xinit &
