OK, that sounds good. But will it still try to start KDE in the background? 
Or does it halt the script when it detects ~/.xinitrc? I'd like to set 
Enlightenment as the default for all users - not for any particular reason, 
I'm just trying to figure out how all this works. Maybe in 10 years I'll be 
trying to figure out the kernel or the internal workings of X - but not just 
yet.
Thanks as always for your help David
