>      When GNOME becomes stable there will be a simple recipe for
      starting up a GNOME session: users will simply type
      <B
CLASS="COMMAND"
>gnome-session</B
> and it will start up their
      environment.  But we are not yet at that point: right now UNIX
      users usually run their stable X Window environment with their
      favorite window manager, and the run the GNOME panel and other
      programs from the shell or from their
      <TT
CLASS="FILENAME"
>.xsession</TT
> or <TT
CLASS="FILENAME"
>.xinitrc</TT
>
      files.
