NAME

       xmag - magnify parts of the screen

SYNOPSIS

       xmag [ -mag magfactor ] [ -source geom ] [ -toolkitoption ... ]

DESCRIPTION

       The  xmag  program  allows you to magnify portions of an X screen.  If no explicit region is specified, a
       square with the pointer in the upper left corner is displayed indicating the area to  be  enlarged.   The
       area  can  be  dragged  out to the desired size by pressing Button 2.  Once a region has been selected, a
       window is popped up showing a blown up version of the region in which each pixel in the source  image  is
       represented  by  a  small square of the same color.  Pressing Button1 in the enlargement window shows the
       position and RGB value of the pixel under the pointer until the button  is  released.   Typing  ``Q''  or
       ``^C'' in the enlargement window exits the program.  The application has 5 buttons across its top.  Close
       deletes this particular magnification instance.  Replace brings up the  rubber  band  selector  again  to
       select  another region for this magnification instance.  New brings up the rubber band selector to create
       a new magnification instance.  Select puts the magnification image into  the  primary  selection.   Paste
       copies  the  primary  selection  buffer  into xmag.  Note that you can cut and paste between xmag and the
       bitmap program.  Resizing xmag resizes the magnification area.  xmag preserves the colormap, visual,  and
       window depth of the source.

WIDGETS

       xmag uses the X Toolkit and the Athena Widget Set.  The magnified image is displayed in the Scale widget.
       For more information, see the Athena Widget Set documentation.  Below is the widget structure of the xmag
       application.   Indentation  indicates  hierarchical   structure.   The  widget class name is given first,
       followed by the widget instance name.
