desktop - switch the window system to be invoked upon login
SYNOPSIS
desktop
[
openwin
]
[
sunview
]
AVAILABILITY
Available beginning with SunOS 4.1.1 Rev B.
DESCRIPTION
desktop
switches the window system to be invoked upon your login between
OpenWindows and SunView.
This only applies if the user is using the default
.cshrc
file supplied from
/usr/lib/Cshrc
and has not modified the window system invocation code section.
With no arguments,
desktop
prompts you to enter the window system you want invoked.
The desired window system can also be supplied on the command line.
If the
add_user (8)
program is used to add a new user's account,
the
/usr/lib/Cshrc
file is copied into the file
.cshrc
in the user's home directory.
Alternatively, this may be done manually.
In either case, if this file's window system invocation code is not
thereafter modified,
desktop
switches window systems as specified.
A confirmation message is displayed for
the window system chosen.
An instructional message is then displayed indicating
the steps to execute to activate this: exiting the system and logging back in.
