SMPROXY(1)			  X Version 11			      SMPROXY(1)

NAME
     smproxy - Session Manager Proxy

SYNOPSIS
     smproxy [-clientId id] [-restore saveFile] [-version]

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.

     -version
	     Prints the program version and exits.

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 application, 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
       properties.

     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 manager to restart the ap-
     plication (using WM_COMMAND), but no state will be restored.
