NAME
       ivman-launch - launch script for Ivman

SYNOPSIS
       ivman-launch  [	--exit-with-session  <cmd>  ]  [ OPTIONS ] [ COMMAND [
       ARGS... ]]

DESCRIPTION
       ivman-launch is a simple script used to launch Ivman.  Its sole purpose
       is to ensure Ivman is closed at the end of a user's login session.  You
       can use it if your session manager does not properly close  Ivman  when
       you log out.

       ivman-launch  supports  the same command-line options as Ivman, and one
       additional option: --exit-with-session.	Thus, there is no point	 using
       ivman-launch if you do not need to use this option.

       If you supply a COMMAND (with optional ARGS), the the specified command
       will be run after ivman is started, and ivman will be killed after that
       command exits.

OPTIONS
       --exit-with-session <cmd>
	      ivman-launch  will  block until the command 'cmd' terminates, at
	      which point it will kill Ivman and exit itself.  If the  command
	      'cmd'  is	 not  running when ivman-launch is started, Ivman will
	      exit immediately.	 Note that this option implies Ivman  will  be
	      called with the '--nofork' option.  option.

       --debug --nofork --system
	      These flags be passed to the launched ivman command.

EXAMPLES
       ivman-launch --exit-with-session xinit &
	      The  ivman  process  will	 be started, then the xinit process is
	      watched.	When the xinit process exits, ivman is killed.	 Plac‐
	      ing  this	 command  in  an  ~/.xinitrc file would cause Ivman to
	      launch in the background when your session begins, and exit when
	      your session ends:

       ivman-launch /usr/bin/x-window-manager
	      The ivman process is launched, then /usr/bin/x-window-manager is
	      run, when x-window-manager exits, ivman is killed.  This	is  an
	      example of how ivman might be launched from Xsession in order to
	      chain several programs together in one session.
