NAME

       aemenu, aepanel, aesession, switch-desk - programs for use with aewm(1x)

SYNOPSIS

       aemenu [--config|-rc <file>] [-s|--switch]
       aepanel [--config|-rc <file>] [-b|--bottom]
       aesession
       aedesk [-n <num>] [[+|-]<num>]

DESCRIPTION

       The  programs listed above provide several window and session management features to complement aewm(1x).
       aemenu and aepanel launch programs and raise existing windows (or unhide iconified ones).  aemenu uses  a
       popup  menu  to  accomplish  this  (the --switch option changes the function of this menu), while aepanel
       stays on the screen inbetween uses (launching and switching functionality are both always available).

       Each program comes in both a GTK+ and a Xaw version; aemenu is actually a symlink to either aemenu-gtk or
       aemenu-xaw (likewise for aepanel).

       The  list  of programs to be run by both clients is read from $HOME/.aewm/clientsrc.  There are two kinds
       of directives that may be used in this file:

              cmd "Description" "command"

       defines a command, which whill be interpreted by sh(1).

              menu "Title"
              (...)
              end

       defines a submenu. The number of submenus that can be nested within each other is limited only  by  stack
       space.  Double  quotes may be included within quoted strings by escaping them with a blackslash (\"), and
       quotes may be omitted around single-word descriptions or commands. Blank lines and  lines  starting  with
       '#' are ignored.

       aesession is a do-nothing program; it will simply reap any children it inherits and then sleep. By ending
       your $HOME/.xsession script with "exec aesession", you can exit and restart aewm(1x) without killing your
       X session. The author does not really expect anyone except WM hackers to find this useful.

       aedesk changes to a new virtual desktop, specified by num, or sets the number of available desktops, with
       -n.
