Bug#660743: stumpwm: please provide desktop file for display managers

[David Banks]

Package: stumpwm
Version: 1:20110819.gitca08e08-2
Severity: wishlist

Hey,

It would be useful to provide a .desktop file under /usr/share/xsessions so that
if a user installs GDM (for instance) then stumpwm will show up under the list
of supported sessions.  I have added this file manually, see below:

  [Desktop Entry]
  Name=Stumpwm
  Comment=tiling, keyboard driven Common Lisp window manager
  Exec=/usr/bin/stumpwm
  Terminal=false
  TryExec=/usr/bin/stumpwm
  Type=Application

  [X-Window Manager]
  SessionManaged=true

This is simply a modified copy of the one contained in the fluxbox package.
Hopefully all display managers are able to read these files and not just gdm.

Cheers,
David
