echo "Welcome to the Compiz Fusion Standalone instructions file. This text file will explain to you how to properly set up your machine in order to be able to run CFS. You can achieve the same goal through other ways, but this is the only way I've tested. Only take other steps if you know what you're doing!" >> /home/jente/CFS/Instructions.txt
echo "--------------------" >> $HOME/CFS/Instructions.txt
echo "Firstly we'll have to create an xsession, so you can choose to run CFS from the Gnome Display Manager (GDM). To create the xsession, open up a terminal and run:
$ gksudo gedit /usr/share/xsessions/fusion.desktop

Now copy/paste this:
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
# This is the name you'll see for the session in gdm
Name=Compiz
# This is the comment
Comment=Compiz Fusion Standalone
# The command
Exec=/usr/local/bin/start-fusion.sh
Type=Application

Safe the file and close gedit.

Some of you might've noticed the start-fusion script already. This script will launch the absolutely required applications, that you should not change unless you know what you're doing. To create the script, again open up a terminal and run:
$ gksudo gedit /usr/local/bin/start-fusion.sh

Copy/paste the following:
#!/bin/bash
## This is the top-level file for the Compiz Fusion Standalone session. 
## This file contains all of the absolutely necessary files in order for a CFS session to run properly. 
## Only edit this if you know what you're doing!
compiz ccp &
emerald &         #edit to add: gtk-window-decorator is an option as well
fusion-icon &
/home/<user>/.config/compiz/autostart.sh

As you can see, the last line in the script points to another script in your home directory. This script contains all the user level packages, such as the panel, power manager, connection manager etcetera. Before creating this script, don't forget to edit the last line in start-fusion.sh according to your system. When you have done so, close gedit and make the file executable. Run this command:
$ sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/start-fusion.sh

The next step is to create the user level script. Again again, open up a terminal:
$ gedit ~/.config/compiz/autostart.sh 

Again, copy/paste:
#!/bin/bash
## User-level autostart file for a Compiz Fusion Standalone session.
## This file is launced by /usr/local/bin/start-fusion.sh
#--------------

# Network manager
nm-applet &

# Wallpaper
nitrogen --restore &

# Panel
xfce4-panel &

# Power manager
xfce4-power-manager

If you want to add an application to this file (thus, having an application start on system boot), add another entry like this ABOVE THE POWER MANAGER ENTRY, otherwise your system won't boot:
# <Function/name, so you'll recognise the entry>
<command> &

Also, the '&' IS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY! If you forget to add it, all entries underneath that one will not be started!

Now to enable the right-click root-menu. Open up your webbrowser (chromium-browser by default) and go to this website: 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/compizboxmenu/

Download the .deb file and install it through Gdebi or the Software Center.
Now open up a filemanager and navigate to /etc/xdg/compiz/boxmenu/ and copy the menu.xml over to ~/.config/compiz/boxmenu/
Open CCSM and follow these steps to only make the menu pop up when you right-click on the desktop:
+ General Options > Commands > Commands > Command line 11 to 'compiz-boxmenu'
+ General Options > Commands > Button Bindings > Command 11 to 'button 3' 
+ Desktop > Viewport Switcher > Desktop-based Viewport Switching > Plugin for initiate action to 'commands'
+ Desktop > Viewport Switcher > Desktop-based Viewport Switching > Action name for initiate to 'run_command11_key'
