NAME

       smproxy - Session Manager Proxy


SYNOPSIS

       smproxy [-clientId id] [-restore saveFile]


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.


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	 applica
       tion, 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 prop
       erties.

       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 man
       ager to restart the application (using WM_COMMAND), but no
       state will be restored.
