Summary

0004300: Doesn't leverage /usr/dt/bin/Xsession (thus misses out on Xsession.d for example)

Description

3rd party window managers (like window maker) can integrate /usr/dt/bin/Xsession into their startup files. This way, sysadmin facilities like a global /etc/dt/config/Xsession.d directory with hook scripts which are called on session startup become available.

The windowmaker_dtlogin package doesn't do this currently. How about leveraging Xsession (or at least the Xsession.d sub-part)? For an example of how this can be done, please see the gnome_dtlogin package. The order in which the gnome_dtlogin configuration file and scripts are processed is roughly the following:

* /etc/dt/config/C/Xresources.d/Xresources.CSWgnome (configures dtlogin)
* /etc/dt/config/Xsession.CSWgnome (called by dtlogin, starts Xsession)
* /usr/dt/bin/Xsession
* /etc/dt/config/Xsession2.CSWgnome (called by Xsession via $SDT_ALT_SESSION)
* /etc/dt/config/Xinitrc.CSWgnome
