That's a good question. The system is connected to an ntp server. The user sets their IP address from within the application at which time it connects to the server and the time jump can occur. The time jump isn't happening constantly; just on that initial connection. But, if the time jump is significant, it's a show stopper, where the only remedy is to restart the box/application.

Hello Everyone,
I have a Domino application running on AIX 5.3 that does time conversions worldwide. It uses the operating system time as a reference for the conversion. My problem is that I need the AIX OS clock to be a 12 hour clock (AM/PM) rather than a 24 hour clock. I have tried the date... (2 Replies)

wincommand
WinCommand(1x) AfterStep X11 window manager WinCommand(1x)
NAME
WinCommand - AfterStep module for choosing and manipulating windows based on patterns
CONFIGURATION OPTIONS
DESCRIPTION
WinCommand is a command line tool which allows you to select windows based on their name and to then manipulate them in various ways.
Actions currently supported are: "center", "center jump", "iconify", "jump", "kill", "move", "resize" and "sendtodesk".
DEFAULTS
The default pattern is "", meaning all windows will be selected.
All other default-values depend on the action you would like WinCommand to take. If more than one action is specified, default-values are
set depending on the last action specified.
ACTIONS
center
Place matching windows into the center of the screen.
center jump:
Places first window that matches into the center of the screen and jumps to it.
iconify:
Iconifies matching windows.
jump:
Jumps to the first window which matches.
kill:
Kills all matching windows.
move:
Moves all matching windows to x/y. x and y are specified using the -x and -y flags.
resize:
Resize all matching windows. The two parameters width and height are specified using the -width and -height flags.
send_to_desk:
Send all matching windows to desk specified with the -new_desk flag.
OPTIONS
-all
Operate on all windows which match the given pattern. This is set by default unless the action is either "jump" or "center jump".
-alldesks
Windows on all desks will be taken into account. This is set by default if action is either "jump" or "center jump".
-desk
Windows on the whole desk will be taken into account.
-x/-y
These are required when issuing the move-command.
-width/-height
These are required whenever you want to resize windows.
Examples WinCommand -pattern term iconify
This command will iconify all terminals. Since the specified pattern is a regular expression, something like this also works:
WinCommand -pattern "(term)|(moz)" iconify
This will iconify all terminals and mozilla-browser windows.
WinCommand -pattern xmm jump
will jump to your xmms. In this situation, it's far more advisable to use GWCommand though.
It is probably not a good idea to delete windows while windows are being arranged.
