xfce4starter

xfce4-session is shit. After complaining about it on IRC, mb gave me some advice on a possible replacement. Here's the result, based on i3exit:

I like to run multiple X servers, but killall "$0" exited them all. As ctrl+alt+delete is so mainstream (and didn't work reliably for me), I got the WM PID from xprop.

Code: Select all

WM_PID=$(xprop -id $(xprop -root _NET_SUPPORTING_WM_CHECK \
| awk -F'#' '{ print $2 }') _NET_WM_PID \
| awk -F' = ' '{ print $2 }')

case "$1" in
	exit)
		kill -15 $WM_PID
