SaveX Blog
A better way to start window managers that you just want to try out

Sorry that there really isn't any documentation yet, I'm working on it, but I'm all worked-out for today.
Essentially, SaveX is what you'd prefix a command with in your ~/.xinitrc file, if you were worried about it crashing and you didn't have a ampersand following it.
Here's an example:
# I'm worried about openbox working right--I've never used it so I'm not sure if I'm using it correctly
exec svx dbus-launch openboxsession;
NOTE:
Yes, I know that it's actually openbox-session and not openboxsession, but that's just the point. With SaveX, you could run the above and instead of the X Server dropping you at the terminal--well, it drops me at the terminal--you'll be dropped to an instance of xterm. Isn't that nice. :D
