I created an .xsession and the contents were as follows:

#!/bin/bash
# Set PATH
PATH=$HOME/bin:$PATH

Yet I am not able to call my i3exit script ( which I have stored in
~/bin directory)
from i3. Because somehow the PATH variable is not set according to either i3
or according to lightdm. I also have other problems with lightdm, which I would
like to discuss but lets stay on the topic for now.

Yes that's the lesson you taught me when I messed up with my global
.Xresources directory. ( Remember ) :)

I somehow need to get /home/neo1691/bin into my PATH variable before
starting i3, or before starting lightdm.

Thanks for hearing me out!
