Re: Windowmanager in session.wm

[James Henstridge <james daa com au>]

icewm is the default wm because there needs to be a default for the
--with-window-manager=wm-name option to configure, and it is as good as
any.

If you want a different default in default.session (eg enlightenment), run
configure as:
  ./configure --prefix=something --with-window-manager=enlightenment
