Actually, it is not exaclty what I mean.
With this patch viewman will not start if OpenAxion running without X
session (right?),
but the problem is not to start viewman if its executable is not present.
As I see, checking for existence of viewman (and others) is not so trivial
due to all these $AXIOM environment variable and execve calls.
>From my point, it is better to have full path to external program
(e. g. "/usr/lib/openaxiom/lib/viewman"), to make a 'stat' call
to check if this file is present, and if so - start this program via
fork+exec.
