What does install ROX do ?

When you run ROX-Session for the first time, it asks you if you want to install it.
Yes, of course, I want to do it. But Because I have custon .xinitrc .xsession and .Xsession scripts, i don't want to let ROX-Session change all that.

So, I'll tell you what it does:

1. It removes ~/.xsession and ~/.xinitrc
2. It creates a files ~/.xsession and put custom stuff in it
3. It creates a link from ~/.xinitrc to ~/.xsession

So if your ~/.xsession and ~/.xinitrc were symbolic links to others files, the original files are not changed. (I can't tell for hard links, I haven't tried)

Now it would be great if there was a way to run ROX-Session from my init scripts. If I try to do that, I only get the window telling me to install ROX-Session. For example with a switch --no-check
