NAME
tixMwm - Communicate with the Motif(tm) window manager.
SYNOPSIS
tixMwm option pathName ?args?
COMMAND OPTIONS
tixMwm decoration pathName ?option? ?value ...?
When no options are given, this command returns the values of all the decorations options for the
toplevel window with the pathName.
When only one option is given without specifying the value, the current value of that option is
returned.
When more than one "option value" pairs are passed to this command, the specified values will be
assigned to the corresponding options. As a result, the appearance of the Motif decorations around
the toplevel window will be changed.
Possible options are: -border, -menu, -maximize, -minimize, -resizeh and -title. The value must be
a Boolean value. The values returned by this command are undefined when the window is not managed
by mwm.
tixMwm ismwmrunning pathName
This returns true if mwm is running on the screen where the specified window is located, false
otherwise.
tixMwm protocol pathName
When no additional options are given, this command returns all protocols associated with this
toplevel window.
tixMwm protocol pathName activate protocol_name
Activate the mwm protocol message in mwm's menu.
tixMwm protocol pathName add protocol_name menu_message
Add a new mwm protocol message for this toplevel window. The message is identified by the string
name specified in protocol_name. A menu item will be added into mwm's menu as specified by
menu_message. Once a new mwm protocol message is added to a toplevel, it can be caught by the TK
wm protocol command. Here is an example: tixMwm protocol . add MY_PRINT_HELLO \
{"Print Hello" _H Ctrl<Key>H} wm protocol . MY_PRINT_HELLO {puts Hello}
tixMwm protocol pathName deactivate protocol_name
Deactivate the mwm protocol message in mwm's menu.
tixMwm protocol pathName delete protocol_name
Delete the mwm protocol message from mwm's menu. Please note that the window manager protocol
handler associated with this protocol (by the wm protocol command) is not deleted automatically.
You have to delete the protocol handle explicitly. E.g.: tixMwm protocol . delete MY_PRINT_HELLO
wm protocol . MY_PRINT_HELLO {}
BUGS
On some versions of Mwm, the -border will not disappear unless -resizeh is turned off. Also, the -title
will not disappear unless all of -title, -menu, -maximize and -minimize are turned off.
