| Subject:  Window Managers
| 
| This is a question for those of you who are running a different
| window manager on top of (actually instead of) the XNeWS 
| postscript window manager. I finally got my OSF/MOTIF window
| manager to compile and run (after taking off the optimization option!)
| but now I am having trouble "removing" the XNeWS window manager.
| 
| I am running a SPARC Station 1, with SunOS 4.0.3c,
| with 1.0 OpenWindows (Beta 2) server, and am now trying to use the
| Motif 1.0 Window manager. 

Your first step should be to get an up-to-date version of the software,
i.e. 1.0, not 1.0 beta2 or anything like that.  Talk to your local Sun
contact to find out how to get a copy.  The 1.0 documentation has changed,
so make sure to get a copy of it along with the software.

Basically, the answer is to run "ps ax | grep pswm" to find the process id
of the window manager, and then send it a TERM signal.
