Window manager script

ok...I got CDE,Gnome and windowmaker all loaded...
Is it posible to write a script that's called cde
and runs xinit /usr/dt/bin/Xsession
or
wm
and runs xinit /usr/local/bin/wmaker
or
gnome
and runs
xinit /etc/gnome/gdm/Sessions/Gnome

Is it possible? This is my first attempt at writing a script so any help would be appreciated.
John
