NAME

       sapphire — minimal but configurable window manager

SYNOPSIS

       sapphire [-display displayname  | -version ]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the sapphire command.

       This  manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not
       have a manual page.

       sapphire is a minimal but configurable window manager for X11R6. It supports themes  in  the  form  of  X
       resource files, and has a customisable menu.

       The  Debian  version receives Debian menu entries automatically in a "Debian" submenu by default, you can
       add entries specifically to sapphire (in the rest of  the  menu)  in  the  default-menu  file.  For  more
       information, see update-menus (1) and the FILES section below.

       Users can also set their own options in $HOME/.sapphire/wmconf (an X resource file).

OPTIONS

       -display displayname
                 Use the X-server display 'displayname'.

       -version  Show version of program.

FILES

       /etc/X11/sapphire/menu/default-menu

       /etc/X11/sapphire/menu/menudefs.hook

       /etc/X11/sapphire/menu/default
                 this menu file is the one sapphire actually reads, it is automatically generated from the other
