X-TILE(1)						      General Commands Manual							 X-TILE(1)

NAME

       x-tile - select windows and adjust their tiling

SYNOPSIS

       x-tile [option][rows][columns]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the x-tile command.

       x-tile is a program that allows tiling selected windows as desired.

       In addition of the predefined tilings, it allows user to create up to two user defined tilings to be applied later.

       It also provides a system tray icon for faster access to tiling menu.

OPTIONS

       This program doesn't follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-'). Instead, it uses case sen-
       sitive single letter options, followed by arguments when required.  A summary of options is included below.

       w      Open the x-tile main window without using the panel.

       z      Undo the latest tiling operation.
