OBXPROP(1) General Commands Manual OBXPROP(1)NAME
openbox -- A minimalistic, highly configurable, next generation window manager with extensive standards support.
SYNOPSIS
openbox [--help] [--display DISPLAY] [--id ID] [--root] [--] [PROPERTY ...]
DESCRIPTION
obxprop is a tool for displaying the properties on an x window.
This tool has a similar functionality to xprop, but obxprop allows you to see UTF-8 strings as text.
You may use the --id option to specify a window identifier, otherwise obxprop will allow you to select a window by clicking on it.
Primarily, this tool exists for Openbox users to see the value of the _OB_APP_NAME, _OB_APP_CLASS, _OB_APP_ROLE, and _OB_APP_TYPE proper-
ties, which Openbox uses for matching windows against user-defined application rules.
OPTIONS
These are the possible options that openbox accepts:
--help Show a summary of the options available.
--display DISPLAY
Specify the X display to use.
--id ID Specify the window identifier for the window whose properties will be displayed.
Similar to xprop, you may pass one or more property names to have openbox limit its output to only the properties requested.
SEE ALSO
openbox (1), openbox-session(1), openbox-gnome-session(1), openbox-kde-session(1).

OPENBOX(1) Openbox documentation OPENBOX(1)NAME
Openbox - standards compliant, fast, light-weight, extensible window manager.
SYNOPSIS
openbox [options]
DESCRIPTION
Openbox works with your applications, and makes your desktop easier to manage. This is because the approach to its development was the
opposite of what seems to be the general case for window managers. Openbox was written first to comply with standards and to work properly.
Only when that was in place did the team turn to the visual interface.
Openbox is fully functional as a stand-alone working environment, or can be used as a drop-in replacement for the default window manager in
the GNOME or KDE desktop environments.
Openbox 3 is a completely new breed of window manager. It is not based upon any existing code base, although the visual appearance has been
based upon that of Blackbox. Openbox 2 was based on the Blackbox 0.65.0 codebase.
OPTIONS --sm-disable
Disable connection to session manager.
--sm-client-id <ID>
Specify session management ID.
--sm-save-file <FILE>
Specify file to load a saved session from.
--replace
Replace the currently running window manager.
--help
Display some help and exit.
--version
Display the version and exit.
--sync
Run in synchronous mode (this is slow and meant for debugging X routines).
--debug
Display debugging output.
