quartz-wm

quartz-wm(1)						      General Commands Manual						      quartz-wm(1)

NAME

       quartz-wm - Aqua Window Manager for the X Window System on OS X

SYNTAX

       quartz-wm [ --only-proxy ]

DESCRIPTION

       quartz-wm  is a window manager for the X Window System. It provides titlebars for X11 windows that aim to match the look and feel of native
       Mac OS X windows. It also contains functionality to bridge between the system pasteboard and the X server's PRIMARY  and  CLIPBOARD  selec-
       tions.

OPTIONS

       quartz-wm accepts the following command line options:

       --only-proxy
	       This  option  indicates	that the program should not attempt to manage any of the display's screens. However the selection proxying
	       features will still be enabled, meaning that a different window manager may be used, but cut and paste will work  as  if  quartz-wm
	       were running.

       --no-pasteboard
	       This  option indicates that the program should not manage the cut and paste proxying.  This option is defaulted to on for newer X11
	       servers that support this functionality and off for older servers that do not.

       --prefs-domain <domain>
	       This option can be used to override the domain used to read preferences from.  This is useful if you want to have multiple X11.apps
	       running at the same time.

CUSTOMIZATION

       quartz-wm  can  be  customized  using the defaults(1) command.  quartz-wm can be forced to re-read these preferences by sending it a SIGHUP
       using kill(1).  The available options are:

       defaults write org.x.X11 wm_ffm -bool true
	       Enables focus-follows-mouse mode. Windows belonging to the X server may then be focused by moving the pointer over them, as well as
	       the default mode of clicking in them.

       defaults write org.x.X11 wm_click_through -bool true
	       Disables the default behavior of swallowing window-activating mouse events.

       defaults write org.x.X11 wm_limit_size -bool true
	       Limit the size of each window to the size of the current head.

       defaults write org.x.x11 wm_focus_on_new_window -bool false
	       Don't tell X11.app to take focus when a new X11 window is created.

       defaults write org.x.X11 wm_window_shading -bool true
	       Enables double clicking on a titlebar to shade the window

       defaults write org.x.X11 wm_auto_quit -bool true
	       Automatically quit quartz-wm (thus shutting down the X11 server) when the last window is closed.

       defaults write org.x.X11 wm_auto_quit_timeout -int 3
	       Set  the  timeout  for  the auto-quit feature.  If wm_auto_quit is true, quartz-wm will wait this many seconds before attempting to
	       shutdown.  If another window is created in that time, quartz-wm will not shutdown.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       DISPLAY This variable is used to determine which X server to use.
