.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||||
.I 9wm
|
||||
is a window manager for X which attempts to emulate the window management
|
||||
policies of Plan 9's
|
||||
.I \*(85
|
||||
window manager.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
The
|
||||
.B \-grey
|
||||
option makes the background light grey, as does \*(85.
|
||||
Use this option for maximum authenticity.
|
||||
.B \-font
|
||||
.I fname
|
||||
sets the font in
|
||||
.IR 9wm 's
|
||||
menu to
|
||||
.IR fname ,
|
||||
overriding the default.
|
||||
.B \-term
|
||||
.I termprog
|
||||
specifies an alternative program to run when the
|
||||
.I New
|
||||
menu item is selected.
|
||||
.B \-version
|
||||
prints the current version on standard error, then exits.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
To make
|
||||
.I 9wm
|
||||
exit, you have to run
|
||||
.B "9wm exit"
|
||||
on the command line. There is no ``exit'' menu item.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
.I 9wm
|
||||
is click-to-type: it has a notion of the current window,
|
||||
which is usually on top, and always has its border darkened.
|
||||
Characters typed at the keyboard go to the current window,
|
||||
and mouse clicks outside the current window are swallowed up
|
||||
by
|
||||
.IR 9wm .
|
||||
To make another window the current one, click on it with button 1.
|
||||
Unlike other X window managers, 9wm implements `mouse focus': mouse events
|
||||
are sent only to the current window.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
A menu of window operations is available by pressing button 3
|
||||
outside the current window.
|
||||
The first of these,
|
||||
.IR New ,
|
||||
attempts to spawn a
|
||||
.I 9term
|
||||
process (or
|
||||
.I xterm
|
||||
if
|
||||
.I 9term
|
||||
is not available).
|
||||
The new
|
||||
.I 9term
|
||||
will request that its outline be swept using button 3
|
||||
of the mouse, by changing the cursor.
|
||||
.RI ( xterm
|
||||
defaults to a fixed size, and thus wants to be dragged; pressing
|
||||
button 3 places it.)
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
The next four menu items are
|
||||
.IR Reshape ,
|
||||
.IR Move ,
|
||||
.IR Delete ,
|
||||
and
|
||||
.IR Hide .
|
||||
All of the operations change the cursor into a target, prompting the user
|
||||
to click button 3 on one of the windows to select it for the operation.
|
||||
At this stage, clicking button 1 or 2 will abort the operation.
|
||||
Otherwise, if the operation was
|
||||
.IR Resize ,
|
||||
the user is prompted to sweep out the new outline with button 3.
|
||||
If it was
|
||||
.IR Move ,
|
||||
the user should keep the button held down after the initial click that selected
|
||||
the window, and drag the window to the right place before releasing.
|
||||
In either case, button 1 or 2 will abort the operation.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
If the
|
||||
.I Delete
|
||||
operation is selected, the window will be deleted when the button is released.
|
||||
This typically kills the client that owns the window.
|
||||
The
|
||||
.I Hide
|
||||
operation just makes the window invisible. While hidden, the window's
|
||||
name appears on the bottom of the button 3 menu. Selecting that item
|
||||
brings the window back (unhides it).
|
||||
This operation replaces the iconification feature provided by other
|
||||
window managers.
|
||||
.SH BUGS
|
||||
Is not completely compatible with \*(85.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
There is a currently a compiled-in limit of 32 hidden windows.
|
||||
.SH "SEE ALSO"
|
||||
.IR 9term (1),
|
||||
.IR xterm (1).
