.SH NAME
|
||||
amiwm \- Amiga Workbench-like X Window Manager
|
||||
|
||||
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
||||
amiwm
|
||||
|
||||
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||||
.I amiwm
|
||||
is an X Window manager that tries to make your workstation look like
|
||||
an Amiga\*R.
|
||||
|
||||
.SH OPTIONS
|
||||
.I Amiwm
|
||||
is configurable with a $HOME/\.amiwmrc-file containing some or all
|
||||
of the following options:
|
||||
.SH FastQuit: {yes|no}
|
||||
|
||||
Specifies whether amiwm should quit directly when the Quit
|
||||
menu item is selected, rather than popping up a requester.
|
||||
(on/off or true/false can be used instead of yes/no.)
|
||||
|
||||
.SH SizeBorder {right|bottom|both|none}
|
||||
|
||||
Specifies which border should be enlarged when a sizegadget is present.
|
||||
|
||||
.SH ForceMove {manual|auto|always}
|
||||
|
||||
Enables you to move windows outside the perimeter of the root window
|
||||
when pressing shift, when trying to drag at least 25% of the window
|
||||
ofscreen, or always, respectively.
|
||||
|
||||
.SH IconDir path
|
||||
|
||||
Specifies a directory in which amiwm will look for icons.
|
||||
|
||||
.SH DefaultIcon name
|
||||
|
||||
Gives the filename of the .info file to use as a default icon.
|
||||
It is relative to the IconDir.
|
||||
|
||||
.SH IconPalette {system|magicwb|schwartz|\f1\*(lq\f3filename"}
|
||||
|
||||
Selects either the Workbench\*R default palette, or the MagicWorkbench
|
||||
standard palette for use with icons. The third option is a 16 color
|
||||
palette used on the "Eric Schwartz Productions CD Archive". Alternatively,
|
||||
the filename of a PPM file representing the palette to use can be used.
|
||||
|
||||
.SH ScreenFont \f1\*(lq\f3fontname"
|
||||
|
||||
Selects a font to use for windowtitles etc.
|
||||
|
||||
.SH IconFont \f1\*(lq\f3fontname"
|
||||
|
||||
Selects a font for icontitles.
|
||||
|
||||
.SH {detailpen|blockpen|textpen|shinepen|shadowpen|fillpen|filltextpen|
|
||||
backgroundpen|highlighttextpen|bardetailpen|barblockpen|
|
||||
bartrimpen} \f1\*(lq\f3colorname"
|
||||
|
||||
Modifies the colour scheme for the window manager.
|
||||
|
||||
.SH CustomIconsOnly {yes|no}
|
||||
|
||||
This prevent applications to display their own icons when in iconified state.
|
||||
Only icons defined in amiwmrc for each apps will be used.
|
||||
Because apps own icon are too different from one eachother.
|
||||
They comes in various sizes and themes. Some icons will be 32x32,
|
||||
while some other will be a 128x128 or even bigger .. By using this option,
|
||||
You have the possibility to decide which icon should be used for each app.
|
||||
If no custom icons are defined at all, the def_tool.info will be used for
|
||||
all iconified apps. Format is: style { class "myClass" icon "myIcon.info" }
|
||||
To find out a given program's class, use "xlsclients -l" to list all opened
|
||||
applications, and then use "xprop -id <0x0000000>" to list a
|
||||
given app's properties. Use either WM_CLASS or WM_ICON_NAME strings in amiwmrc.
|
||||
|
||||
.SH ShortLabelIcons {yes|no}
|
||||
|
||||
This limit the length of the text for iconified programs. For example, if this
|
||||
option is activated, an iconified program text will be limited to 8 chars + ".."
|
||||
Use this option if you don't want iconified program text to be loong strings..
|
||||
|
||||
.SH TitleBarClock {yes|no}
|
||||
|
||||
Enables a clock in the titlebar. It displays the date and time.
|
||||
|
||||
.SH TitleClockFormat [<number>] "time string"
|
||||
|
||||
This lets you choose a new format to display the Title Bar Clock.
|
||||
The time string is formatted with the standard strftime() parameters.
|
||||
The default is "%c". It has been found that "%a %b %e %Y %l:%M %p" works
|
||||
well too. Number is the update interval in seconds.
|
||||
|
||||
.SH ToolItem \f1\*(lq\f3name" \f1\*(lq\f3command" \f1\*(lq\f3hotkey"
|
||||
|
||||
Adds an item in the Tools menu with the specified name, which executes
|
||||
the command when selected. A string containing a single uppercase letter
|
||||
may be specified as the third argument, making this letter a hotkey for the
|
||||
item.
|
||||
|
||||
.SH ToolItem Separator
|
||||
|
||||
Inserts a separator bar in the Tools menu.
|
||||
|
||||
.SH ToolItem \f1\*(lq\f3name" { <tool item commands>}
|
||||
|
||||
Create ToolItem:s in a submenu with the specified name. It is not legal
|
||||
to create a submenu inside another submenu.
|
||||
|
||||
.SH Screen [<number>] \f1\*(lq\f3name"
|
||||
|
||||
Create a new screen with the specified name. It will be placed below all
|
||||
earlier created screens. To move a window between two screens, iconify it
|
||||
and drag the icon over to the other screen. If the second argument is given,
|
||||
this screen is placed on the corresponding X screen.
|
||||
|
||||
.SH ModulePath \f1\*(lq\f3path(:path...)"
|
||||
|
||||
Sets one or more directories where amiwm will look for module binaries.
|
||||
The default is AMIWM_HOME. Note that the module binaries cannot be
|
||||
shared amongst different architectures.
|
||||
|
||||
.SH Module \f1\*(lq\f3name" ["initstring"]
|
||||
|
||||
Start a module with the specified name. If initstring is specified, it
|
||||
is sent to the module. There are currently two modules shipped with
|
||||
amiwm; Background and Keyboard. These are documented in the file
|
||||
README.modules. If a module is limited to a single screen, like the
|
||||
Background module, the screen that was created last is used.
|
||||
|
||||
.SH InterScreenGap number
|
||||
|
||||
Sets the size in number of pixels of the "video DMA off" area that appears
|
||||
between screens when they are dragged.
|
||||
|
||||
.SH AutoRaise {yes|no}
|
||||
|
||||
Selects whether windows will automatically be moved to the front when
|
||||
they are activated.
|
||||
|
||||
.SH Focus {followmouse|sloppy|clicktotype}
|
||||
|
||||
Sets the policy by which windows are given focus. Followmouse is the
|
||||
default and means that the window that contains the mouse pointer will
|
||||
have focus. Sloppy means that the window that had focus last will keep
|
||||
it when the pointer is not over a window. ClickToType is the original AmigaOS
|
||||
policy in which you have to explicitly give focus to windows by clicking
|
||||
in them.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.SH TROUBLESHOOTING
|
||||
|
||||
The most likely reason for amiwm to crash is if it
|
||||
can't find its default icon, or if this is not accepted as a
|
||||
*.info file. If this happens, amiwm _will_ dump core. So make
|
||||
sure that either 'make install' runs successfully (in which case
|
||||
amiwm will know where its icon is), or that the file .amiwmrc
|
||||
contains a correct specification of the icon's location.
