# kdmflexiserver -- an alternative for gdmflexiserver for KDM
# KDE, when started from KDM, allows users to start new KDM sessions or
# swith to other sessions using the "Switch User" menu item in the K menu.
#
# However, users of desktop environments other than KDE do not have an easy
# access to this KDM functionality. This script presents the user with a 
# list of runing sessions and an option to start a new session. kdmctl
# is then called to switch to the selected session.
