At school, on an HP-UX or B.11.11 U 9000/785 system, my X11 root window is always set to 8-bit color, but all the child windows are 24-bit. The problem with this, is any background/wallpaper looks extremely ugly with the 8-bit color. Is there any way to make X starts with 24-bit color root window?... (0 Replies)

Anyone know of a way to create a pop-up window using X11? I'm not to sure where to start. I just think it would be neat to do. So I was hoping someone out there had documentation on how to go about this, or if I was going to have to write/compile a program to do so.
Thank you!

MC-TOOL(1) Utilities MC-TOOL(1)
NAME
mc-tool - manipulate Mission Control accounts from the command line
SYNOPSIS
mc-tool list
mc-tool add PROFILE DISPLAY-NAME [PARAMETER-SETTINGS...]
mc-tool add MANAGER/PROTOCOL [PARAMETER-SETTINGS...]
mc-tool update ACCOUNT [PARAMETER-SETTINGS...]
mc-tool display ACCOUNT DISPLAY-NAME
mc-tool nick ACCOUNT NICKNAME
mc-tool icon ACCOUNT ICON
mc-tool show ACCOUNT
mc-tool get ACCOUNT PARAMETER [PARAMETER...]
mc-tool auto-presence ACCOUNT STATUS [MESSAGE]
mc-tool request ACCOUNT STATUS [MESSAGE]
mc-tool auto-connect ACCOUNT on|off
mc-tool remove ACCOUNT
DESCRIPTION
mc-tool's usage depends on its first argument (the "command")
SPECIFYING ACCOUNTS
Where an account name is needed, it may be given as a full object path (e.g. /org/freedesktop/Telepathy/Account/gabble/jabber/example), or
as the unique account-specific suffix (e.g. gabble/jabber/example).
SPECIFYING PARAMETER SETTINGS
Many commands take arguments that represent Telepathy connection manager parameters (see the Telepathy Specification for details of these).
Each argument has the following form:
TYPE:NAME=VALUE
where TYPE is either int, uint, bool, or string (other parameter types exist, but are currently unsupported by mc-tool), NAME is the name
of the connection manager parameter (e.g. account or password), and VALUE is the parameter's value (with integers in decimal, and booleans
as 0 or 1).
The update command also accepts arguments of the form clear:NAME which delete the named parameter from the account configuration.
LIST
mc-tool list lists the available accounts.
ADD
mc-tool add adds an account. The connection manager and protocol can either be given as the name of a Mission Control profile, (e.g.
gtalk), or as a slash-separated connection manager name and protocol (e.g. gabble/jabber).
DISPLAY
mc-tool display ACCOUNT DISPLAY-NAME sets the DisplayName property of ACCOUNT to DISPLAY-NAME.
NICK
mc-tool nick ACCOUNT NICKNAME sets the Nickname property of ACCOUNT to NICKNAME.
ICON
mc-tool icon ACCOUNT ICON sets the Icon property of ACCOUNT to ICON.
SHOW
mc-tool show ACCOUNT shows information about ACCOUNT.
GET
mc-tool get ACCOUNT PARAMETER [PARAMETER...] shows the values of the given parameters of ACCOUNT.
ENABLE
mc-tool enable ACCOUNT sets the Enabled property of ACCOUNT to True.
DISABLE
mc-tool disable ACCOUNT sets the Enabled property of ACCOUNT to False.
AUTO-PRESENCE
mc-tool auto-presence ACCOUNT STATUS [MESSAGE] sets the AutomaticPresence property of ACCOUNT to STATUS with optional message MESSAGE.
REQUEST
mc-tool request ACCOUNT STATUS [MESSAGE] sets the RequestedPresence property of ACCOUNT to STATUS with optional message MESSAGE; this is
how you tell an account to connect or go offline, for example.
AUTO-CONNECT
mc-tool auto-connect ACCOUNT on sets the ConnectAutomatically property of ACCOUNT to True. mc-tool auto-connect ACCOUNT off sets it to
False.
