I've used this as a front-end chooser on a machine with Gnome, KDE, and
Icewm as the choices.  It's for a Debian Woody install, so there may be
some dependencies on that.  The attached file would go in your home
directory as .xsession, and you'd start X from a console login by
"startx".  I guess you'd still have to disable the *dm graphical login
proggy to get this running.

Okay, now did the listware strip all attachments, or only non-text
ones?
