|
|
.SH NAME
|
|

.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B wmaker
|

|
|
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
|
|
Window Maker is a X11 window manager with a NEXTSTEP look. It tries to
|
|
emulate NeXT's look as much as possible, but it deviates from it as
|
|
necessary.
|
|
.SH "OPTIONS"
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-nocpp
|
|
disable preprocessing of configuration files
|
|
.TP

|
.TP

|
.B \-noclip

|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-display host:display.screen
|
|
specify display to use.
|
|
On multiheaded machines, Window Maker will automatically manage all screens.
|
|
If you want Window Maker to manage only a specific screen, you must supply
|
|
the screen number you want to have managed with the
|
|
.B \-display
|
|
command line argument. For example, if you want Window Maker to manage only
|
|
screen 1, start it as:
|
|
.B wmaker -display :0.1
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-version
|
|
display version number and exit
|
|
.TP

.TP
|
|
.B ~/GNUstep/Defaults/WMWindowAttributes
|
|
Attributes for different application classes and instances. Use the
|
|
Attribute Editor (right drag the application's title bar, select
|
|

|
|
few options not available using the Attributes Editor.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B /usr/share/WindowMaker/Defaults/
|
|
All the above-mentioned files are READ from here if not found except
|
|
for WMState, which is COPIED from here. No matter where they are read
|
|
from, if it's necesary to write configuration changes back into this
|
|
files, user's files will be written to.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B ~/GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker/autostart
|
|

|
|
This script is automatically executed immediately before Window Maker is
|
|
exited.
|
|
.B Note:
|
|
If you need to run something that requires the X server to be running
|
|
from this script, make sure you do not use the
|
|
.I SHUTDOWN
|
|
command from the root menu to exit Window Maker. Otherwise, the X server
|
|
might be shut down before the script is executed.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B ~/GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker/
|
|
The menu file indicated in WMRootMenu is looked for here...
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B /etc/X11/WindowMaker/
|
|
and here, in that order. Unless, the indicated path is an absolute path.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B ~/GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker/Pixmaps/
|
|
Window Maker looks for pixmaps here
|
|
.TP
|

|
|
Window Maker looks for backgrounds here
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B ~/GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker/Styles/
|
|
Window Maker looks for style files here (not true... it looks like it
|
|
does, but you have to specify the full path anyway, it's just a place
|
|
to keep things nicely ordered)
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B ~/GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker/Themes/
|
|
Window Maker looks for theme files here (ibid)
|
|
.TP

|
|
.TP
|
|
.B /usr/share/WindowMaker/Themes/

Guess... ;-)

|
.SH ENVIRONMENT
|
|
.IP GNUSTEP_USER_ROOT
|
|
specifies the initial path for the Defaults directory. "Defaults/" is
|
|
appended to this variable to determine the actual location of the
|
|
databases. If the varialbe is not set, it defaults to "~/GNUstep"
|
|
.IP GNUSTEP_LOCAL_ROOT
|
|
specifies the location of the system-wide \fBlocal\fP GNUstep
|
|
directory (this is useful, for example, in those cases where the
|
|
system-wide location is really a network wide location). If this
|
|
variable is empty, GNUSTEP_SYSTEM_ROOT is looked for.
|
|
.IP GNUSTEP_SYSTEM_ROOT
|
|
specifies the location of the system-wide GNUstep directory. If this
|
|
variable is empty, it defaults to /etc/GNUstep
