xkill

xkill(1X)																 xkill(1X)

NAME

       xkill - kill a client by its X resource

SYNOPSIS

       xkill [-display displayname] [-id resource] [-button number] [-frame] [-all]

OPTIONS

       This  option specifies the name of the X server to contact.  This option specifies the X identifier for the resource whose creator is to be
       aborted.  If no resource is specified, xkill will display a special cursor with which you should select a window to be kill.   This  option
       specifies the number of pointer button that should be used in selecting a window to kill. If the word "any" is specified, any button on the
       pointer may be used.  By default, the first button in the pointer map (which is usually the leftmost button) is used.   This  option  indi-
       cates  that  all  clients with top-level windows on the screen should be killed.  xkill will ask you to select the root window with each of
       the currently defined buttons to give you several chances to abort. Use of this option is highly discouraged.  This option  indicates  that
       xkill  should ignore the standard conventions for finding top-level client windows (which are typically nested inside a window manager win-
       dow), and simply believe that you want to kill direct children of the root.

DESCRIPTION

       The xkill command is a utility for forcing the X server to close connections to clients.  This program is very dangerous, but is useful for
       aborting  programs  that have displayed undesired windows on a user's screen.  If no resource identifier is given with -id, xkill will dis-
       play a special cursor as a prompt for the user to select a window to be killed.	If a pointer button is pressed over a non-root window, the
       server will close its connection to the client that created the window.

XDEFAULTS

       Specifies a specific pointer button number or the word "any" to use when selecting windows.
