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‐

       managers for use with GNOME or standalone.

	      sequently saving the session.
