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.

NAME

       X - X Window System display server dispatcher

SYNOPSIS

       X [ option ...]

DESCRIPTION
:
       Hewlett-Packard	supports  two  X  servers on HP-UX platforms, the Xhp X server which supports HP VISUALIZE graphics devices and the Xf86 X
       server which supports all other graphics devices.  These X servers are delivered as /usr/bin/X11/Xhp and /usr/bin/X11/Xf86.

       The X dispatcher determines which X server to launch based on the available graphics devices.  The control file /etc/X11/Xstart can provide
       additional  guidance to the X dispatcher.  The control file allows the user to specify which X server to start for given display connection
       numbers. The only X servers supported by the X dispatcher are Xhp, Xf86 and Xvfb.  If no Xstart	file  exists,  the  dispatcher	loads  the
       appropriate  X server for the graphics device in the system.  HP-UX does not deliver the /etc/X11/Xstart file.  This file can be created by
       using the SAM/SMH utility.

OPTIONS

       If the X dispatcher is invoked with no arguments, the display connection is assumed to be :0.  The X dispatcher checks for display  connec-
       tion  options  and, if found, uses that display connection number when it checks the Xstart file.  All other options are passed on to the X
       server when it is started and it is the X server's responsibility to validate these options.  Not all options may be supported  on  both  X
       servers; refer to Xhp(1) and Xf86(1) to verify supported options for each X server.

RETURN VALUE

       None

Xstart EXAMPLES
       The control file syntax is the X server to start followed by the display connection number.  Valid entries take the form of:

       Xhp :0				       Start the Xhp X server on display connection 0

       Xf86 :10 			       Start the Xf86 X server on display 10

       /usr/bin/X11/Xhp :5		       Start the Xhp X server on display connection 5

       /usr/bin/X11/Xvfb :7		       Start the X Virtual Framebuffer server on display connection 7

FILES

       /etc/X11/Xstart			       Dispatcher control file.

       /var/X11/Xserver/logs/Xstartup.N.log    X dispatcher log file for display N.
