DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly metacity.
metacity is a minimal X window manager aimed at nontechnical users and
is designed to integrate well with the GNOME desktop. metacity lacks
some features that may be expected by traditional UNIX or other techni-
cal users; these users may want to investigate other available window
managers for use with GNOME or standalone.
OPTIONS

Users are encouraged to change the GNOME window manager by run-

sequently saving the session.
