Another case of Badly placed parens.

The shell error message "Badly placed ()'s" can occur for a surprisingly simple oversight. If the script begins with a shell-invocation comment, but is missing the exclamation-point, it is simply a comment and not an invocation. If you attempt to execute it from a shell other than the shell you...

STARTFLUXBOX(1) 						  Fluxbox Manual						   STARTFLUXBOX(1)

NAME

       startfluxbox - start a fluxbox session

SYNOPSIS

       startfluxbox

DESCRIPTION

       startfluxbox is a script which runs the file ~/.fluxbox/startup If it doesn't exist it will be generated.

       startfluxbox should be started from your ~/.xinitrc if you use startx, or ~/.xsession if you run a display manager, like xdm.

FILES

       ~/.fluxbox/startup
	   This file contains all commands that should be executed before fluxbox is started. The initial file contains helpful comments for
	   beginners. It also starts fluxbox.

EXAMPLES

       The default ~/.fluxbox/startup is as follows:

	   #!/bin/sh
	   #
	   # fluxbox startup-script:
	   #
	   # Lines starting with a '#' are ignored.

	   # Change your keymap:
	   xmodmap "$HOME/.Xmodmap"

	   # Applications you want to run with fluxbox.
	   # MAKE SURE THAT APPS THAT KEEP RUNNING HAVE AN ''&'' AT THE END.
	   #
	   # unclutter -idle 2 &
	   # wmnd &
	   # wmsmixer -w &
	   # idesk &

	   # And last but not least we start fluxbox.
	   # Because it is the last app you have to run it with ''exec'' before it.

	   exec fluxbox
	   # or if you want to keep a log:
	   # exec fluxbox -log "$fluxdir/log"

       If you need to start applications after fluxbox, you can change the exec fluxbox line above to something like this:

	   exec fluxbox &
	   fbpid=$!

	   sleep 1
	   {
		   xsetroot -cursor_name left_ptr -fg white -bg black &
		   ipager &
		   gkrellm2 &
	   } &

	   wait $fbpid

       So xsetroot, ipager, and gkrellm2 will all be started after fluxbox, after giving fluxbox 1 second to startup.

       For more details on what else you can do in this script, see sh(1), or the documentation for your shell.
