NAME
aemenu, aepanel, aesession, switch-desk - programs for use with aewm(1x) SYNOPSIS
aemenu [--config|-rc <file>] [-s|--switch] aepanel [--config|-rc <file>] [-b|--bottom] aesession aedesk [-n <num>] [[+|-]<num>] DESCRIPTION
The programs listed above provide several window and session management features to complement aewm(1x). aemenu and aepanel launch pro- grams and raise existing windows (or unhide iconified ones). aemenu uses a popup menu to accomplish this (the --switch option changes the function of this menu), while aepanel stays on the screen inbetween uses (launching and switching functionality are both always available). Each program comes in both a GTK+ and a Xaw version; aemenu is actually a symlink to either aemenu-gtk or aemenu-xaw (likewise for aepanel). The list of programs to be run by both clients is read from $HOME/.aewm/clientsrc. There are two kinds of directives that may be used in this file: cmd "Description" "command" defines a command, which whill be interpreted by sh(1). menu "Title" (...) end defines a submenu. The number of submenus that can be nested within each other is limited only by stack space. Double quotes may be included within quoted strings by escaping them with a blackslash ("), and quotes may be omitted around single-word descriptions or com- mands. Blank lines and lines starting with '#' are ignored. aesession is a do-nothing program; it will simply reap any children it inherits and then sleep. By ending your $HOME/.xsession script with "exec aesession", you can exit and restart aewm(1x) without killing your X session. The author does not really expect anyone except WM hackers to find this useful. aedesk changes to a new virtual desktop, specfied by num, or sets the number of available desktops, with -n. FILES

NAME
sapphire -- minimal but configurable window manager SYNOPSIS
sapphire [-display displayname | -version ] DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the sapphire command. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. sapphire is a minimal but configurable window manager for X11R6. It supports themes in the form of X resource files, and has a customisable menu. The Debian version receives Debian menu entries automatically in a "Debian" submenu by default, you can add entries specifically to sap- phire (in the rest of the menu) in the default-menu file. For more information, see update-menus (1) and the FILES section below. Users can also set their own options in $HOME/.sapphire/wmconf (an X resource file). OPTIONS
-display displayname Use the X-server display 'displayname'. -version Show version of program. FILES
/etc/X11/sapphire/menu/default-menu menu entries specific to sapphire (you can edit this one, it's a conffile) /etc/X11/sapphire/menu/menudefs.hook Debian menu entries in sapphire's format, not read directly, do not edit (edit default-menu instead) /etc/X11/sapphire/menu/default this menu file is the one sapphire actually reads, it is automatically generated from the other two by update-menus, do not edit (edit default-menu instead) $HOME/.sapphire/wmconf user-specific options /usr/share/sapphire/themes themes directory, all of the above may refer to themes from here (the files themselves are X resource files) HISTORY
Sapphire was originally developed from Decklin Foster's aewm, and also uses some code from Blackbox (for gradients). SEE ALSO
