xfdesktop

XFDESKTOP(1)						      General Commands Manual						      XFDESKTOP(1)

NAME

       xfdesktop - The Xfce 4 Desktop Environment's desktop manager

SYNOPSIS

       xfdesktop
       xfdesktop [options]

DESCRIPTION

       xfdesktop  manages the desktop itself in the Xfce 4 Desktop Environment.  This includes drawing the desktop backdrop and providing a right-
       click applications menu and middle-click window list menu, as well as drawing icons on the desktop.  Only one instance of xfdesktop can	be
       running at a time, and should be started by running xfdesktop without any arguments.

OPTIONS

       --reload
	      Causes an already-running instance of xfdesktop to reload all its settings, including loading a new random backdrop if using a back-
	      drop list.

       --menu Causes an already-running instance of xfdesktop to pop up the applications menu at the current position of the mouse cursor.

       --windowlist
	      Causes an already-running instance of xfdesktop to pop up the window list menu at the current position of the mouse cursor.

ENVIRONMENT

       xfdesktop's behavior is affected by the following environment variables.

       XDG_CONFIG_HOME
	      Specifies the root for all user-specific configuration files.  If this environment variable is not present, it defaults to ~/.config

       XDG_CONFIG_DIRS
	      Specifies a colon-separated list of system directories in which to search for configuration data.  If this environment  variable	is
	      not present, it defaults to /etc/xdg

FILES

       xfdesktop  searches for a menu description file in $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS/menus/xfce-applications.menu.  xfdesktop can also use a user-customized
       menu in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/menus/.

BUGS

       Please report any bugs to http://bugzilla.xfce.org/.  Development discussion should be conducted on the	xfce4-dev@xfce.org  mailing  list.
       Usage-related questions should be directed to the xfce@xfce.org mailing list.
