Hmm? That sounds fishy! icewm (or any other wm for that matter) is
a normal X11 client. You can start it however you like and run stuff
afterwards. What yo have to take care is, that the .xinitrc/.xsession
may not exit. If it does, the x server exits as well. That's why i put
an "fg" at the end. I move icewm back to the foreground and ensures that
the script does not exit until icewm exits.
