How do I start XWindows in full screen mode with OpenBox window manager?
It used to be that I'd just put the command for the window manager at the end of startxwin.bat. Now that file's gone away.
I can't use startxwin.exe as it is multi-window only. I can run XWin.exe, but the only command line or .XWinrc options I can find for that program are for Windows-specific functions(i.e. system tray icon).
TIA,
Joe
To achive this, create a icon that points to
C:\cygwin\bin\run.exe /usr/bin/bash.exe -l -c "/usr/bin/startx"
Edit /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc and change
twm &
to
openbox &
That changes the behavior for all users.
