NAME

       GNOME Default session configuration file.

       The /usr/share/gnome/default.session file contains a list of programs to be launched the first time a user logs into the GNOME environment.

       The format of the file is the one used by the gnome_config libraries, and it looks like this:

       [Section]
       SEQID,id=uniqueID
       SEQID,Priority=PRIO
       SEQID,RestartCommand=command
       num_clients=TOP

       There are three possible names for Section And they are:

       Default

	      This specifies the Default session to load

       Chooser

	      Lets the user configure which non-session aware programs should be started up when the session begins

       Warner

       Since  the  gnome_config  file  format  is  not very flexible, an array of data is emulated by listing starting from 0 chunks of "id,Prior-
       ity,RestartCommand", and at the end the num_clients variable lists the number of chunks listed.

       The uniqueid key provides a name that is unique within this file and passed to the app as the client id which it must use to register  with
       gnome-session.

       The RestartCommand specifies the command to run from the $PATH.

       The Priority determines the order in which the commands are started (with Priority = 0 first) and defaults to 50.

       The clients must be numbered from 0 to the value of num_clients-1

NAME

       default.session - GNOME default session configuration file

DESCRIPTION

       The  /usr/share/gnome/default.session  file contains a list of programs to be launched the first time that a user logs into the GNOME envi-
       ronment.

EXTENDED DESCRIPTION

       The format of the /usr/share/gnome/default.session file is the same as that used by the gnome_config libraries, as follows:

       [Section]
       SEQID,id=uniqueid
       SEQID,Priority=prio
       SEQID,RestartCommand=command
       num_clients=top

       A section with the predefined name of Default specifies the session to load by default.

       As the gnome_config file format is not very flexible, an array of data is emulated by  listing,	starting  from	0,  chunks  of	"id,Prior-
       ity,RestartCommand".  At the end, the num_clients variable lists the number of chunks listed.

       The  uniqueid key provides a name that is unique within this file and passed to the application as the client id, which it must use to reg-
       ister with gnome-session.

       The RestartCommand specifies the command to run from $PATH.

       The Priority determines the order in which the commands are started (with Priority = 0 first) and defaults to 50.

       The clients must be  numbered from 0 to the value of {num_clients-1}.
