NAME

        icewm-startup - icewm startup configuration file

SYNOPSIS

        $ICEWM_PRIVCFG/startup
        $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/icewm/startup
        $HOME/.icewm/startup
        /etc/X11/icewm/startup
        /usr/share/icewm/startup

DESCRIPTION

       The startup file contains commands to be executed on icewm startup.  This is an executable script.
       Typically the commands tweak X11 settings and launch some applications which always need to be active.
       It is run by icewm-session(1) when icewm starts.

EXAMPLES

        #!/bin/bash
        xset r rate 250 32
        flameshot &
        volumeicon &
        redshift-gtk &
        picom -b

       Remember to "chmod +x ~/.icewm/startup".
