NAME

       mwm — The Motif Window Manager

SYNOPSIS

       mwm [options]

DESCRIPTION

       The  mwm  window  manager  provides functions that facilitate control (by the user and the
       programmer) of elements of window state such as placement, size, icon/normal display,  and
       input-focus ownership.

       The  stand-alone  window  manager  is  not  an  integral  part of CDE and does not support
       communication with other components in the CDE environment, such as the Style Manager  and
       the Session Manager.

   Options
       -display display
                 This option specifies the display to use; see X(1).

       -xrm resourcestring
                 This option specifies a resource string to use.

       -multiscreen
                 This  option  causes mwm to manage all screens on the display. The default is to
                 manage only a single screen.

       -name name
                 This option causes mwm to retrieve its resources using the specified name, as in
                 name*resource.

       -screens name [name [...]]
                 This  option specifies the resource names to use for the screens managed by mwm.
                 If mwm is managing a single screen, only the first name in the list is used.  If
                 mwm  is  managing  multiple  screens,  the  names are assigned to the screens in
                 order, starting with screen 0. Screen 0 gets the first name, screen 1 the second
                 name, and so on.

   Appearance
       The  following  sections  describe the basic default behaviors of windows, icons, the icon
       box, input focus, and window stacking. The appearance and behavior of the  window  manager
       can  be altered by changing the configuration of specific resources. Resources are defined
       under the heading "X DEFAULTS."

   Screens
       By default, mwm manages only the single screen specified by the  -display  option  or  the
       DISPLAY  environment  variable  (by  default,  screen  0).  If  the -multiscreen option is
       specified or if the multiScreen resource is True, mwm tries to manage all the  screens  on
       the display.

       When mwm is managing multiple screens, the -screens option can be used to give each screen
       a unique resource name. The names are separated by  blanks,  for  example,  -screens  scr0
       scr1.  If  there  are more screens than names, resources for the remaining screens will be
       retrieved using the first name.  By default, the screen number  is  used  for  the  screen
       name.

   Windows
       Default mwm window frames have distinct components with associated functions:

       Title Area
                 In addition to displaying the client's title, the title area is used to move the
                 window. To move the window, place the pointer over the title area, press  button
                 1  and  drag  the  window  to  a new location. By default, a wire frame is moved
                 during the drag to indicate the new location. When the button is  released,  the
                 window is moved to the new location.

       Title Bar The title bar includes the title area, the minimize button, the maximize button,
                 and the window menu button. In shaped windows, such as round windows, the  title
                 bar floats above the window.

       Minimize Button
                 To  turn  the  window  into  an icon, click button 1 on the minimize button (the
                 frame box with a small square in it).

       Maximize Button
                 To make the window fill the screen (or enlarge to the largest  size  allowed  by
                 the  configuration  files), click button 1 on the maximize button (the frame box
                 with a large square in it).

       Window Menu Button
                 The window menu button is the frame box with a horizontal bar in  it.   To  pull
                 down  the  window  menu, press button 1. While pressing, drag the pointer on the
                 menu to  your  selection,  then  release  the  button  when  your  selection  is
                 highlighted.  Pressing  button  3 in the title bar or resize border handles also
                 posts the window menu. Alternately, you can click button 1 to pull down the menu
                 and  keep it posted; then position the pointer and select. You can also post the
                 window menu by pressing <Shift> <Esc> or <Alt> <Space>.  Double-clicking  button
                 1 with the pointer on the window menu button closes the window.

       The following table lists the contents of the window menu.

   Default Window Menu
       Selection            Accelerator   Description
       Restore                            Restores  the  window to its size
                                          before minimizing or maximizing.
       Move                               Allows the  window  to  be  moved
                                          with keys or mouse.
       Size                               Allows the window to be resized.
       Minimize                           Turns the window into an icon.
       Maximize                           Makes the window fill the screen.
       Lower                              Moves  window to bottom of window
                                          stack.
       Close                Alt+F4        Causes client to terminate.

       Resize Border Handles
                 To change the size of a window, move the pointer over  a  resize  border  handle
                 (the  cursor  changes),  press button 1, and drag the window to a new size. When
                 the button is released, the window is resized. While dragging is being  done,  a
                 rubber-band outline is displayed to indicate the new window size.

       Matte     An optional matte decoration can be added between the client area and the window
                 frame (see the matteWidth resource). A matte is not actually part of the  window
                 frame.  There is no functionality associated with a matte.

   Icons
       Icons  are small graphic representations of windows. A window can be minimized (iconified)
       using the minimize button on the window frame. Icons provide a way to  reduce  clutter  on
       the screen.

       Pressing  mouse button 1 when the pointer is over an icon causes the icon's window menu to
       pop up. Releasing the button (press + release without moving mouse  =  click)  causes  the
       menu to stay posted. The menu contains the following selections:

   Icon Window Menu
       Selection   Accelerator    Description
       Restore                    Opens the associated window.
       Move                       Allows  the  icon  to be moved with
                                  keys.

       Size                       Inactive (not an option for icons).
       Minimize                   Inactive (not an option for icons).
       Maximize                   Opens  the  associated  window  and
                                  makes it fill the screen.
       Lower                      Moves icon to bottom of icon stack.
       Close       Alt+F4         Removes client from mwm management.

       Note  that pressing button 3 over an icon also causes the icon's window menu to pop up. To
       make a menu selection, drag the pointer over the  menu  and  release  button  3  when  the
       desired item is highlighted.

       Double-clicking  button 1 on an icon invokes the f.restore_and_raise function and restores
       the icon's associated window to its previous state. For example, if a maximized window  is
       iconified,  double-clicking  button  1 restores it to its maximized state. Double-clicking
       button 1 on the icon box's icon opens the icon box and  allows  access  to  the  contained
       icons.  (In general, double-clicking a mouse button is a quick way to perform a function.)
       Pressing <Shift> <Esc> or <Menu> (the pop-up menu key) causes the icon window menu of  the
       currently selected icon to pop up.

   Icon Box
       When  icons  begin  to clutter the screen, they can be packed into an icon box. (To use an
       icon box, mwm must be started with the icon box configuration already set.) The  icon  box
       is  a  mwm  window that holds client icons. It includes one or more scroll bars when there
       are more window icons than the icon box can show at the same time.

       Icons in the icon box can be manipulated with the mouse. The  following  table  summarizes
       the  behavior  of this interface. Button actions apply whenever the pointer is on any part
       of  the  icon.  Note  that  double-clicking  an  icon  in  the  icon   box   invokes   the
       f.restore_and_raise function.

       Button     Action         Description
       Button 1   click          Selects the icon.
       Button 1   double-click   Normalizes  (opens)  the  associated
                                 window.   Raises  an  already   open
                                 window to the top of the stack.
       Button 1   drag           Moves the icon.
       Button 3   press          Causes the menu for that icon to pop
                                 up.
       Button 3   drag           Highlights  items  as  the   pointer
                                 moves across the menu.

       Pressing  mouse button 3 when the pointer is over an icon causes the menu for that icon to
       pop up.

   Icon Menu for the Icon Box
       Selection   Accelerator   Description
       Restore                   Opens the associated window (if not
                                 already open).
       Move                      Allows  the  icon  to be moved with
                                 keys.
       Size                      Inactive.
       Minimize                  Inactive.
       Maximize                  Opens the associated window (if not
                                 already  open)  and  maximizes  its
                                 size.
       Lower                     Inactive.
       Close       Alt+F4        Removes client from mwm management.

       To pull down the window menu for the icon box itself, press button 1 with the pointer over
       the  menu button for the icon box. The window menu of the icon box differs from the window
       menu  of  a  client  window:  The  "Close"  selection  is  replaced  with  the  "PackIcons
       Shift+Alt+F7"  selection.  When  selected, PackIcons packs the icons in the box to achieve
       neat rows with no empty slots.

       You can also post the window menu by pressing <Shift>, <Esc> or  <Alt>  <Space>.  Pressing
       <Menu> (the pop-up menu key) causes the icon window menu of the currently selected icon to
       pop up.

   Input Focus
       The mwm window manager supports (by default) a keyboard input  focus  policy  of  explicit
       selection. This means when a window is selected to get keyboard input, it continues to get
       keyboard input until the window is withdrawn from window  management,  another  window  is
       explicitly  selected  to get keyboard input, or the window is iconified. Several resources
       control the input focus. The client window with the keyboard input focus  has  the  active
       window appearance with a visually distinct window frame.

       The following tables summarize the keyboard input focus selection behavior:

       Button      Action     Object                  Function Description
       Button 1    press      Window / window frame   Keyboard focus selection.
       Button 1    press      Icon                    Keyboard focus selection.

       Key Action          Function Description
       [Alt][Tab]          Move input focus to next window in window
                           stack (available only in  explicit  focus
                           mode).
       [Alt][Shift][Tab]   Move  input  focus  to previous window in
                           window stack (available only in  explicit
                           focus mode).

   Window Stacking
       There  are  two  types  of  window stacks: global window stacks and an application's local
       family window stack.

       The global stacking order of windows may be changed as a result of  setting  the  keyboard
       input focus, iconifying a window, or performing a window manager window stacking function.
       When keyboard focus policy is explicit the default value of the focusAutoRaise resource is
       True.  This  causes  a  window to be raised to the top of the stack when it receives input
       focus, for example, by pressing button 1 on the title bar. The key actions defined in  the
       previous table will thus raise the window receiving focus to the top of the stack.

       In  pointer  mode,  the  default  value  of  focusAutoRaise  is False, that is, the window
       stacking order is not changed when a window receives keyboard input focus.  The  following
       key actions can be used to cycle through the global window stack.

       Key Action          Function Description
       [Alt][ESC]          Place top window on bottom of stack.
       [Alt][Shift][ESC]   Place bottom window on top of stack.

       By  default,  a  window's  icon  is  placed  on the bottom of the stack when the window is
       iconified; however, the default can be changed by the lowerOnIconify resource.

       Transient windows (secondary windows such a dialog boxes) stay above their parent  windows
       by  default; however, an application's local family stacking order may be changed to allow
       a transient window to be placed below its parent top-level window. The following arguments
       show the modification of the stacking order for the f.lower function.

       f.lower   Lowers  the  transient  window  within the family (staying above the parent) and
                 lowers the family in the global window stack.

       f.lower [ within]
                 Lowers the transient window within the family (staying  above  the  parent)  but
                 does not lower the family in the global window stack.

       f.lower [freeFamily ]
                 Lowers  the  window  free from its family stack (below the parent), but does not
                 lower the family in the global window stack.

       The arguments within and freeFamily can also be used with f.raise and f.raise_lower.

   Session Management
       The window manager is an X Session  Management  Protocol  aware  client.  It  responds  to
       SaveYourself  (and other associated messages) by saving the geometries of its clients to a
       state file.  mwm can then be restarted by the XSMP session manager.  The default  location
       for  the  state  file  is  $HOME/.mwmclientdb.   This  location can be overridden with the
       resource sessionClientDB.

   X Resources
       The mwm command is configured from its resource database. This database is built from  the
       following sources. They are listed in order of precedence, low to high:

       /etc/X11/app-defaults/Mwm

       $HOME/Mwm

       RESOURCE_MANAGER root window property or $HOME/.Xdefaults

       XENVIRONMENT variable or $HOME/.Xdefaults-host

       mwm command line options

       The  file  names /etc/X11/app-defaults/Mwm and $HOME/Mwm represent customary locations for
       these files. The actual location of the system-wide class resource file may depend on  the
       XFILESEARCHPATH  environment  variable  and  the  current language environment. The actual
       location of the user-specific class resource file may depend  on  the  XUSERFILESEARCHPATH
       and XAPPLRESDIR environment variables and the current language environment.

       Entries  in  the resource database may refer to other resource files for specific types of
       resources. These include files that contain bitmaps, fonts,  and  mwm  specific  resources
       such as menus and behavior specifications (for example, button and key bindings).

       Mwm  is the resource class name of mwm and mwm is the default resource name used by mwm to
       look up resources. the -screens command line option  specifies  resource  names,  such  as
       "mwm_b+w"  and "mwm_color".)  In the following discussion of resource specification, "Mwm"
       and "mwm" (and the aliased mwm resource names) can  be  used  interchangeably,  but  "mwm"
       takes precedence over "Mwm".

       The mwm command uses the following types of resources:

       Component Appearance Resources:
                 These  resources  specify appearance attributes of window manager user interface
                 components. They can be applied to  the  appearance  of  window  manager  menus,
                 feedback  windows  (for  example,  the  window reconfiguration feedback window),
                 client window frames, and icons.

       General Appearance and Behavior Resources:
                 These resources  specify  mwm  appearance  and  behavior  (for  example,  window
                 management  policies).  They  are  not  set  separately  for  different mwm user
                 interface components. They apply to all screens and workspaces.

       Screen Specific Appearance and Behavior Resources:
                 These resources specify the appearance and behavior of  mwm  elements  that  are
                 settable on a per-screen basis.

       Client Specific Resources:
                 These mwm resources can be set for a particular client window or class of client
                 windows. They specify client-specific icon and client  window  frame  appearance
                 and behavior.

       Resource identifiers can be either a resource name (for example, foreground) or a resource
       class (for example, Foreground). If the value of a resource  is  a  filename  and  if  the
       filename  is  prefixed  by  "~/",  then  it  is relative to the path contained in the HOME
       environment variable (generally the user's home directory).

   Component Appearance Resources
       The syntax for specifying component appearance resources  that  apply  to  window  manager
       icons, menus, and client window frames is Mwm* resource_id

       For  example, Mwm*foreground is used to specify the foreground color for mwm menus, icons,
       client window frames, and feedback dialogs.

       The syntax for specifying component appearance resources that apply to  a  particular  mwm
       component is Mwm*[menu|icon|client|feedback] *resource_id

       If menu is specified, the resource is applied only to mwm menus; if icon is specified, the
       resource is applied to icons; and if client is  specified,  the  resource  is  applied  to
       client  window  frames. For example, Mwm*icon*foreground is used to specify the foreground
       color for mwm icons, Mwm*menu*foreground specifies the foreground color for mwm menus, and
       Mwm*client*foreground  is  used  to  specify  the  foreground  color for mwm client window
       frames.

       The appearance of the title area of a client window  frame  (including  window  management
       buttons)  can  be  separately  configured.  The syntax for configuring the title area of a
       client window frame is Mwm*client*title* resource_id

       For example, Mwm*client*title*foreground specifies the  foreground  color  for  the  title
       area.  Defaults  for  title  area  resources  are based on the values of the corresponding
       client window frame resources.

       The appearance of menus can be configured based on the name of the menu.  The  syntax  for
       specifying menu appearance by name is Mwm*menu* menu_name*resource_id

       For example, Mwm*menu*my_menu*foreground specifies the foreground color for the menu named
       my_menu. The user can also specify resources for window manager menu components, that  is,
       the  gadgets  that  comprise  the menu. These may include for example, a menu title, title
       separator, one or more buttons, and separators. If a menu contains more than one  instance
       of  a  class,  such  as  multiple  PushButtonGadgets,  the  name  of the first instance is
       "PushButtonGadget1", the second is "PushButtonGadget2", and  so  on.  The  following  list
       identifies the naming convention used for window manager menu components:

          •  Menu Title LabelGadget - "TitleName"

          •  Menu Title SeparatorGadget - "TitleSeparator"

          •  CascadeButtonGadget - "CascadeButtonGadget<n>"

          •  PushButtonGadget - "PushButtonGadget<n>"

          •  SeparatorGadget - "SeparatorGadget<n>"

       Refer to the man page for each class for a list of resources that can be specified.

       The following component appearance resources that apply to all window manager parts can be
       specified:

   Component Appearance Resources - All Window Manager Parts
       Name                 Class              Value Type     Default

       background (class  Background)
                 This  resource  specifies  the  background  color.  Any  legal  X  color  may be
                 specified. The default value is chosen based on the visual type of the screen.

       backgroundPixmap (class  BackgroundPixmap)
                 This resource specifies the background Pixmap of the  mwm  decoration  when  the
                 window  is  inactive  (does  not have the keyboard focus).  The default value is
                 chosen based on the visual type of the screen.

       bottomShadowColor (class  Foreground)
                 This resource specifies the bottom shadow color. This  color  is  used  for  the
                 lower  and  right bevels of the window manager decoration. Any legal X color may
                 be specified. The default value is chosen  based  on  the  visual  type  of  the
                 screen.

       bottomShadowPixmap (class  BottomShadowPixmap)
                 This  resource  specifies  the bottom shadow Pixmap. This Pixmap is used for the
                 lower and right bevels of the window manager decoration. The default  is  chosen
                 based on the visual type of the screen.

       fontList (class  FontList)
                 This  resource  specifies  the  font used in the window manager decoration.  The
                 character encoding of the font  should  match  the  character  encoding  of  the
                 strings that are used. The default is "fixed."

       foreground (class  Foreground)
                 This resource specifies the foreground color. The default is chosen based on the
                 visual type of the screen.

       saveUnder (class  SaveUnder)
                 This is used to indicate whether "save unders" are used for mwm components.  For
                 this  to  have  any  effect, save unders must be implemented by the X server. If
                 save unders are implemented, the X server saves the contents of windows obscured
                 by  windows that have the save under attribute set. If the saveUnder resource is
                 True, mwm will set the save under attribute on the window manager frame  of  any
                 client  that  has it set. If saveUnder is False, save unders will not be used on
                 any window manager frames. The default value is False.

       topShadowColor (class  Background)
                 This resource specifies the top shadow color. This color is used for  the  upper
                 and left bevels of the window manager decoration. The default is chosen based on
                 the visual type of the screen.

       topShadowPixmap ( class  TopShadowPixmap)
                 This resource specifies the top shadow Pixmap. This Pixmap is used for the upper
                 and left bevels of the window manager decoration. The default is chosen based on
                 the visual type of the screen.

       The following component appearance  resources  that  apply  to  frame  and  icons  can  be
       specified:

       †The default is chosen based on the visual type of the screen.  ††See XmInstallImage(3).

       activeBackground (class  Background)
                 This  resource  specifies  the  background  color of the mwm decoration when the
                 window is active (has the keyboard focus). The default is chosen  based  on  the
                 visual type of the screen.

       activeBackgroundPixmap (class  ActiveBackgroundPixmap)
                 This  resource  specifies  the  background Pixmap of the mwm decoration when the
                 window is active (has the keyboard focus). The default is chosen  based  on  the
                 visual type of the screen.

       activeBottomShadowColor (class  Foreground)
                 This  resource  specifies the bottom shadow color of the mwm decoration when the
                 window is active (has the keyboard focus).  The default is chosen based  on  the
                 visual type of the screen.

       activeBottomShadowPixmap (class  BottomShadowPixmap)
                 This  resource specifies the bottom shadow Pixmap of the mwm decoration when the
                 window is active (has the keyboard focus).  The default is chosen based  on  the
                 visual type of the screen.

       activeForeground (class  Foreground)
                 This  resource  specifies  the  foreground  color of the mwm decoration when the
                 window is active (has the keyboard focus). The default is chosen  based  on  the
                 visual type of the screen.

       activeTopShadowColor (class  Background)
                 This  resource  specifies  the  top  shadow color of the mwm decoration when the
                 window is active (has the keyboard focus). The default is chosen  based  on  the
                 visual type of the screen.

       activeTopShadowPixmap (class  TopShadowPixmap)
                 This  resource  specifies  the  top shadow Pixmap of the mwm decoration when the
                 window is active (has the keyboard focus). The default is chosen  based  on  the
                 visual type of the screen.

   General Appearance and Behavior Resources
       The syntax for specifying general appearance and behavior resources is Mwm*resource_id

       For  example,  Mwm*keyboardFocusPolicy specifies the window manager policy for setting the
       keyboard focus to a particular client window.

       The following general appearance and behavior resources can be specified:

       †The resource doubleClickTime is included for  backward  compatibility.   Use  of  the  Xt
       resource multiClickTime is preferred.

       autoKeyFocus (class  AutoKeyFocus)
                 This  resource  is  available  only  when  the  keyboard  input  focus policy is
                 explicit. If autoKeyFocus is given a value of True, then when a window with  the
                 keyboard  input  focus  is withdrawn from window management or is iconified, the
                 focus is set to the previous window that had the focus. If the  value  given  is
                 False,  there  is  no  automatic  setting  of  the  keyboard  input focus. It is
                 recommended that both autoKeyFocus and startupKeyFocus be True to work with tear
                 off menus. The default value is True.

       autoRaiseDelay (class  AutoRaiseDelay)
                 This resource is available only when the focusAutoRaise resource is True and the
                 keyboard focus policy is pointer.  The  autoRaiseDelay  resource  specifies  the
                 amount  of  time  (in  milliseconds)  that mwm will wait before raising a window
                 after it gets the keyboard focus. The default value  of  this  resource  is  500
                 (ms).

       bitmapDirectory (class  BitmapDirectory)
                 This  resource  identifies  a directory to be searched for bitmaps referenced by
                 mwm resources. This directory is searched if a bitmap is  specified  without  an
                 absolute    pathname.    The    default    value    for    this    resource   is
                 /usr/include/X11/bitmaps. The directory /usr/include/X11/bitmaps represents  the
                 customary  locations  for  this directory. The actual location of this directory
                 may vary on some systems. If the bitmap is not found in the specified directory,
                 XBMLANGPATH is searched.

       clientAutoPlace (class  ClientAutoPlace)
                 This  resource  determines the position of a window when the window has not been
                 given a program- or user-specified position. With a value of True,  windows  are
                 positioned  with  the  top  left  corners  of the frames offset horizontally and
                 vertically. A value of False causes the currently  configured  position  of  the
                 window to be used. In either case, mwm will attempt to place the windows totally
                 on-screen. The default value is True.

       colormapFocusPolicy (class  ColormapFocusPolicy)
                 This resource indicates the colormap focus policy that is to be  used.   If  the
                 resource  value  is  explicit,  a  colormap selection action is done on a client
                 window to set the colormap focus to that window. If the value  is  pointer,  the
                 client  window  containing  the pointer has the colormap focus.  If the value is
                 keyboard, the client window that has the keyboard input focus has  the  colormap
                 focus. The default value for this resource is keyboard.

       configFile (class  ConfigFile)
                 The  resource  value is the pathname for a mwm resource description file. If the
                 pathname begins with "~/", mwm considers it to be relative to  the  user's  home
                 directory  (as  specified  by  the  HOME  environment  variable).   If  the LANG
                 environment variable is set, mwm looks for $HOME/$LANG/ configFile. If that file
                 does  not  exist  or  if LANG is not set, mwm looks for $HOME/configFile. If the
                 configFile pathname does not begin with "~/" or "/",  mwm  considers  it  to  be
                 relative  to  the  current  working directory. If the configFile resource is not
                 specified or if that file does not exist, mwm uses several default paths to find
                 a   configuration   file.   The   order   of   the   search   is   shown  below:
                 /etc/X11/mwm/$LANG/system.mwmrc/etc/X11/mwm/system.mwmrc†  Paths  marked  with
                 '†' are implementation dependent.

       deiconifyKeyFocus (class  DeiconifyKeyFocus)
                 This resource applies only when the keyboard input focus policy is explicit.  If
                 a value of True is used, a window receives the keyboard input focus when  it  is
                 normalized (deiconified). True is the default value.

       doubleClickTime (class  DoubleClickTime)
                 This resource is used to set the maximum time (in ms) between the clicks (button
                 presses) that make up a double-click. The use of this  resource  is  deprecated.
                 Use  the  Xt  resource  multiClickTime  instead.   The  value of doubleClickTime
                 dynamically defaults to the value of multiClickTime.

       enableWarp (class  EnableWarp)
                 The default value of this resource, True, causes mwm to warp the pointer to  the
                 center  of  the  selected  window  during  keyboard-controlled  resize  and move
                 operations. Setting the value to False causes mwm to leave the  pointer  at  its
                 original  place  on  the  screen,  unless  the user explicitly moves it with the
                 cursor keys or pointing device.

       enforceKeyFocus (class  EnforceKeyFocus)
                 If this resource is given a value of True, the keyboard input  focus  is  always
                 explicitly  set to selected windows even if there is an indication that they are
                 "globally active" input windows. (An example of a globally active  window  is  a
                 scroll  bar  that  can be operated without setting the focus to that client.) If
                 the resource is False, the  keyboard  input  focus  is  not  explicitly  set  to
                 globally active windows. The default value is True.

       frameStyle (class  frameStyle)
                 If  this  resource  is  given a value of "slab", the the window manager frame is
                 drawn such that the client area appears to be at the same height as the  top  of
                 the  window  frame.  If  the  resource is set to "recessed", the window frame is
                 drawn such that the client area appears lower than the top of the window  frame.
                 The default value is "recessed".

       iconAutoPlace (class  IconAutoPlace)
                 This  resource  indicates  whether  the  window  manager  arranges  icons  in  a
                 particular area of the screen or places each icon where the window was  when  it
                 was  iconified. The value True indicates that icons are arranged in a particular
                 area of the screen, determined by the iconPlacement resource.  The  value  False
                 indicates  that  an  icon  is  placed  at  the location of the window when it is
                 iconified. The default is True.

       iconClick (class  IconClick)
                 When this resource is given the value of True, the system  menu  is  posted  and
                 left posted when an icon is clicked. The default value is True.

       interactivePlacement (class  InteractivePlacement)
                 This  resource  controls the initial placement of new windows on the screen.  If
                 the value is True, the pointer shape changes before a new window  is  placed  on
                 the  screen  to  indicate to the user that a position should be selected for the
                 upper-left hand corner of the window. If the value is False, windows are  placed
                 according  to  the initial window configuration attributes. The default value of
                 this resource is False.

       keyboardFocusPolicy (class  KeyboardFocusPolicy)
                 If set to pointer, the keyboard focus policy is to have the keyboard  focus  set
                 to the client window that contains the pointer (the pointer could also be in the
                 client window decoration that mwm adds).  If set to explicit, the policy  is  to
                 have  the  keyboard  focus set to a client window when the user presses button 1
                 with the pointer on the  client  window  or  any  part  of  the  associated  mwm
                 decoration. The default value for this resource is explicit.

       lowerOnIconify (class  LowerOnIconify)
                 If  this resource is given the default value of True, a window's icon appears on
                 the bottom of the window stack when the  window  is  minimized  (iconified).   A
                 value  of  False  places the icon in the stacking order at the same place as its
                 associated window. The default value of this resource is True.

       moveThreshold (class  MoveThreshold)
                 This resource is used to control the sensitivity  of  dragging  operations  that
                 move  windows and icons. The value of this resource is the number of pixels that
                 the locator is moved with a button down before the move operation is  initiated.
                 This  is used to prevent window/icon movement when you click or double-click and
                 there is unintentional pointer movement with the button down.  The default value
                 of this resource is 4 (pixels).

       multiScreen (class  MultiScreen)
                 This  resource, if True, causes mwm to manage all the screens on the display. If
                 False, mwm manages only a single screen. The default value is False.

       passButtons (class  PassButtons)
                 This resource indicates whether or not button press events are passed to clients
                 after  they  are  used to do a window manager function in the client context. If
                 the resource value is False, the button press is not passed to  the  client.  If
                 the  value  is True, the button press is passed to the client window. The window
                 manager function is done in either case. The default value for this resource  is
                 False.

       passSelectButton (class  PassSelectButton)
                 This resource indicates whether or not to pass the select button press events to
                 clients after they are used to do  a  window  manager  function  in  the  client
                 context.  If  the  resource  value  is  False, then the button press will not be
                 passed to the client. If the value is True, the button press is  passed  to  the
                 client  window. The window manager function is done in either case.  The default
                 value for this resource is True.

       positionIsFrame (class  PositionIsFrame)
                 This resource  indicates  how  client  window  position  information  (from  the
                 WM_NORMAL_HINTS  property and from configuration requests) is to be interpreted.
                 If the resource value is True, the information is interpreted as the position of
                 the  mwm  client window frame. If the value is False, it is interpreted as being
                 the position of the client area  of  the  window.  The  default  value  of  this
                 resource is True.

       positionOnScreen (class  PositionOnScreen)
                 This  resource  is  used to indicate that windows should initially be placed (if
                 possible) so that they are not clipped  by  the  edge  of  the  screen  (if  the
                 resource  value  is True). If a window is larger than the size of the screen, at
                 least the upper-left corner of the window is on-screen. If the resource value is
                 False,  windows are placed in the requested position even if totally off-screen.
                 The default value of this resource is True.

       quitTimeout (class  QuitTimeout)
                 This resource specifies the amount of time (in milliseconds) that mwm will  wait
                 for  a  client  to  update  the  WM_COMMAND  property  after  mwm  has  sent the
                 WM_SAVE_YOURSELF message. The default value  of  this  resource  is  1000  (ms).
                 (Refer to the f.kill function description for additional information.)

       raiseKeyFocus (class  RaiseKeyFocus)
                 This  resource  is  available  only  when  the  keyboard  input  focus policy is
                 explicit. When set to True, this resource specifies  that  a  window  raised  by
                 means  of  the f.normalize_and_raise function also receives the input focus. The
                 default value of this resource is False.

       refreshByClearing (class  RefreshByClearing)
                 This resource determines the mechanism used to refresh a window (or the  screen)
                 when  the  f.refresh_win  (f.refresh) function is executed. When set to True, an
                 XClearArea is performed over the window for f.refresh_win. When set to False,  a
                 covering  window  is  created  and  destroyed  over  the top of the window to be
                 refreshed. If the function is f.refresh and this resource is set to  True,  then
                 an  XClearArea is performed over every window on the screen.  If the resource is
                 set to False, then one large window covering the entire screen  is  created  and
                 destroyed. The default value of this resource is True.

       rootButtonClick (class  RootButtonClick)
                 The  rootButtonClick  resource  controls  whether the a click on the root window
                 will post the root menu in a "sticky" mode. If this resource is set to  True,  a
                 button  click  on  the  root  window will post the menu bound to the button down
                 event for that button in a "sticky" fashion.  If this resource is set to  False,
                 then  the  same  button  click would only cause the menu to flash as it would be
                 unposted once the button up event is seen.  The criterion used to  determine  if
                 it  is a button click is if the pointer doesn't move between the button down and
                 button up events. The default value for this resource is True.

       screens (class  Screens)
                 This resource specifies the resource names to use for  the  screens  managed  by
                 mwm.  If  mwm  is  managing  a single screen, only the first name in the list is
                 used. If mwm is managing multiple screens, the names are assigned to the screens
                 in  order,  starting  with  screen 0. Screen 0 gets the first name, screen 1 the
                 second name, and so on. The default screen names are 0, 1, and so on.

       sessionClientDB (class  SessionClientDB)
                 This resource identifies a file name to use as a root when saving state  at  the
                 request  of  an  XSMP  session  manager.  When  the session is saved, the window
                 manager will then reuse the file name by automatically incrementing a suffix.

       showFeedback (class  ShowFeedback)
                 This resource controls whether or not feedback windows or  confirmation  dialogs
                 are  displayed.  A feedback window shows a client window's initial placement and
                 shows position and size during move and resize operations.  Confirmation dialogs
                 can  be  displayed for certain operations. The value for this resource is a list
                 of names of the feedback options to be enabled or disabled; the  names  must  be
                 separated  by  a space. If an option is preceded by a minus sign, that option is
                 excluded from the list. The sign of the first item in the  list  determines  the
                 initial  set  of options.  If the sign of the first option is minus, mwm assumes
                 all options are present and starts subtracting from that set. If the sign of the
                 first  decoration  is  plus  (or  not specified), mwm starts with no options and
                 builds up a list from the resource.

       The names of the feedback options are shown below:

       Name          Description
       all           Show all feedback (Default value).
       behavior      Confirm behavior switch.
       kill          Confirm on receipt of KILL signal.
       move          Show position during move.
       none          Show no feedback.
       placement     Show  position  and  size   during   initial
                     placement.
       quit          Confirm quitting mwm.
       resize        Show size during resize.
       restart       Confirm mwm restart.

       The following command line illustrates the syntax for showFeedback:

       Mwm*showFeedback: placement resize behavior restart

       This resource specification provides feedback for initial client placement and resize, and
       enables the dialog boxes to confirm the restart and set behavior  functions.  It  disables
       feedback for the move function. The default value for this resource is all.

       startupKeyFocus (class  StartupKeyFocus)
                 This  resource  is  available  only  when  the  keyboard  input  focus policy is
                 explicit. When given the default value of True, a window gets the keyboard input
                 focus  when  the  window  is  mapped  (that  is, initially managed by the window
                 manager). It is recommended that both autoKeyFocus and startupKeyFocus  be  True
                 to work with tear off menus. The default value is True.

       wMenuButtonClick (class  WMenuButtonClick)
                 This  resource  indicates  whether a click of the mouse when the pointer is over
                 the window menu button posts and leaves posted the window  menu.  If  the  value
                 given  this resource is True, the menu remains posted. True is the default value
                 for this resource.

       wMenuButtonClick2 (class  WMenuButtonClick2)
                 When this resource is given the default value of True, a double-click action  on
                 the window menu button does an f.kill function.

   Screen Specific Appearance and Behavior Resources
       The  syntax  for  specifying screen specific resources is Mwm* screen_name*resource_id For
       example, Mwm*1*keyBindings specifies the key bindings to use for screen "1".

       buttonBindings (class  ButtonBindings)
                 This resource identifies the  set  of  button  bindings  for  window  management
                 functions.  The  named  set  of button bindings is specified in the mwm resource
                 description file. These button bindings are merged  with  the  built-in  default
                 bindings. The default value for this resource is "DefaultButtonBindings".

       cleanText (class  CleanText)
                 This  resource  controls  the display of window manager text in the client title
                 and feedback windows. If the default value of True is used, the  text  is  drawn
                 with  a  clear  (no  stipple)  background.  This  makes  text  easier to read on
                 monochrome systems where a backgroundPixmap is specified. Only the stippling  in
                 the  area  immediately  around  the text is cleared. If False, the text is drawn
                 directly on top of the existing background.

       fadeNormalIcon (class  FadeNormalIcon)
                 If this resource is given a value of True, an icon is grayed out whenever it has
                 been normalized (its window has been opened). The default value is False.

       feedbackGeometry (class  FeedbackGeometry)
                 This resource sets the position of the move and resize feedback window.  If this
                 resource is not specified, the default is to place the feedback  window  at  the
                 center  of  the  screen. The value of the resource is a standard window geometry
                 string with the following syntax: [=]{ +-}xoffset{+-} yoffset]

       frameBorderWidth (class  FrameBorderWidth)
                 This resource specifies the width (in pixels) of a client  window  frame  border
                 without  resize handles. The border width includes the 3-D shadows.  The default
                 value is based on the size and resolution of the screen.

       iconBoxGeometry (class  IconBoxGeometry)
                 This resource indicates the initial position and size  of  the  icon  box.   The
                 value  of  the  resource is a standard window geometry string with the following
                 syntax: [=][width xheight][{+-}xoffset  {+-}yoffset]  If  the  offsets  are  not
                 provided,  the  iconPlacement policy is used to determine the initial placement.
                 The units for width and height are columns and rows. The actual screen  size  of
                 the  icon  box  window depends on the iconImageMaximum (size) and iconDecoration
                 resources. The default value for size is (6 * iconWidth + padding) wide by (1  *
                 iconHeight + padding) high. The default value of the location is +0 -0.

       iconBoxName (class  IconBoxName)
                 This  resource  specifies  the  name that is used to look up icon box resources.
                 The default name is iconbox.

       iconBoxSBDisplayPolicy (class  IconBoxSBDisplayPolicy)
                 This resource specifies the scroll bar display policy of the window  manager  in
                 the  icon  box.  The  resource  has  three  possible  values: all, vertical, and
                 horizontal. The default value, "all", causes both vertical and horizontal scroll
                 bars  always to appear. The value "vertical" causes a single vertical scroll bar
                 to appear in the icon box and sets the orientation of the icon box to horizontal
                 (regardless of the iconBoxGeometry specification). The value "horizontal" causes
                 a single horizontal  scroll  bar  to  appear  in  the  icon  box  and  sets  the
                 orientation  of  the  icon  box  to  vertical (regardless of the iconBoxGeometry
                 specification).

       iconBoxTitle (class  IconBoxTitle)
                 This resource specifies the name that is used in the title area of the icon  box
                 frame. The default value is Icons.

       iconDecoration (class  IconDecoration)
                 This resource specifies the general icon decoration. The resource value is label
                 (only the label part is displayed) or image (only the image part  is  displayed)
                 or  label  image  (both  the  label  and image parts are displayed).  A value of
                 activelabel can also be specified to get a label (not truncated to the width  of
                 the  icon)  when  the icon is selected. The default icon decoration for icon box
                 icons is that each icon has a label part and an image part  (label  image).  The
                 default  icon  decoration  for stand alone icons is that each icon has an active
                 label part, a label part, and an image part (activelabel label image).

       iconImageMaximum (class  IconImageMaximum)
                 This resource specifies the maximum size of the icon image. The  resource  value
                 is  widthx  height  (for example, 64x64). The maximum supported size is 128x128.
                 The default value of this resource is 50x50.

       iconImageMinimum (class  IconImageMinimum)
                 This resource specifies the minimum size of the icon image. The  resource  value
                 is widthx height (for example, 32x50). The minimum supported size is 16x16.  The
                 default value of this resource is 16x16.

       iconPlacement (class  IconPlacement)
                 This resource specifies the icon placement scheme to be used. The resource value
                 has the following syntax:

                 primary_layout secondary_layout [tight]

       The layout values are one of the following:

       Value      Description
       top        Lay the icons out top to bottom.
       bottom     Lay the icons out bottom to top.
       left       Lay the icons out left to right.
       right      Lay the icons out right to left.

       A  horizontal  (vertical)  layout value should not be used for both the primary_layout and
       the secondary_layout (for example, don't use top for the primary_layout and bottom for the
       secondary_layout).

       The  primary_layout  indicates whether, when an icon placement is done, the icon is placed
       in a row or a column and the direction of placement. The secondary_layout indicates  where
       to place new rows or columns. For example, top right indicates that icons should be placed
       top to bottom on the screen and that columns should be added from right  to  left  on  the
       screen.

       The  default  placement is left bottom (icons are placed left to right on the screen, with
       the first row on the bottom of the screen, and new rows  added  from  the  bottom  of  the
       screen  to the top of the screen). A tight value places icons with zero spacing in between
       icons. This value is useful for aesthetic reasons,  as  well  as  X-terminals  with  small
       screens.

       iconPlacementMargin (class  IconPlacementMargin)
                 This  resource  sets  the  distance between the edge of the screen and the icons
                 that are placed along the edge of the screen. The value should be  greater  than
                 or  equal  to  0.  A default value (see below) is used if the value specified is
                 invalid. The default value for this resource is equal to the space between icons
                 as  they  are placed on the screen (this space is based on maximizing the number
                 of icons in each row and column).

       keyBindings (class  KeyBindings)
                 This  resource  identifies  the  set  of  key  bindings  for  window  management
                 functions.  If  specified,  these  key  bindings  replace  the  built-in default
                 bindings. The named set of key bindings is specified in mwm resource description
                 file. The default value for this resource is "DefaultKeyBindings".

       limitResize (class  LimitResize)
                 If  this resource is True, the user is not allowed to resize a window to greater
                 than the maximum size. The default value for this resource is True.

       maximumMaximumSize (class  MaximumMaximumSize)
                 This resource is used to limit the maximum size of a client window as set by the
                 user  or  client.  The  resource  value is widthxheight (for example, 1024x1024)
                 where the width and height are in pixels. The default value of this resource  is
                 twice the screen width and height.

       moveOpaque (class  MoveOpaque)
                 This  resource  controls  whether  the  actual  window is moved or a rectangular
                 outline of the window is moved. A default value of False displays a  rectangular
                 outline on moves.

       resizeBorderWidth (class  ResizeBorderWidth)
                 This  resource  specifies  the width (in pixels) of a client window frame border
                 with resize handles. The specified border width includes the 3-D  shadows.   The
                 default value is based on the size and resolution of the screen.

       resizeCursors (class  ResizeCursors)
                 This  is  used  to indicate whether the resize cursors are always displayed when
                 the pointer is in the window size  border.  If  True,  the  cursors  are  shown,
                 otherwise the window manager cursor is shown. The default value is True.

       transientDecoration (class  TransientDecoration)
                 This  controls  the amount of decoration that mwm puts on transient windows. The
                 decoration specification is exactly the same as for the clientDecoration (client
                 specific)  resource.   Transient  windows are identified by the WM_TRANSIENT_FOR
                 property, which is added by  the  client  to  indicate  a  relatively  temporary
                 window.  The  default  value for this resource is menu title (that is, transient
                 windows have frame borders and a titlebar with a window menu button).

                 An application can also specify  which  decorations  mwm  should  apply  to  its
                 windows. If it does so, mwm applies only those decorations indicated by both the
                 application and the transientDecoration resource.  Otherwise,  mwm  applies  the
                 decorations  indicated by the transientDecoration resource. For more information
                 see the description of XmNmwmDecorations on the VendorShell(3) reference page.

       transientFunctions (class  TransientFunctions)
                 This resource  is  used  to  indicate  which  window  management  functions  are
                 applicable  (or not applicable) to transient windows. The function specification
                 is exactly the same as for the clientFunctions (client specific)  resource.  The
                 default value for this resource is -minimize -maximize.

                 An application can also specify which functions mwm should apply to its windows.
                 If it  does  so,  mwm  applies  only  those  functions  indicated  by  both  the
                 application  and  the  transientFunctions  resource.  Otherwise, mwm applies the
                 functions indicated by the transientFunctions resource. For more information see
                 the description of XmNmwmFunctions on the VendorShell(3) reference page.

       useIconBox (class  UseIconBox)
                 If this resource is given a value of True, icons are placed in an icon box. When
                 an icon box is not used, the icons  are  placed  on  the  root  window  (default
                 value).

   Client Specific Resources
       The syntax for specifying client specific resources is

       Mwm*client_name_or_class *resource_id

       For example, Mwm*mterm*windowMenu is used to specify the window menu to be used with mterm
       clients. The syntax for specifying client specific resources for all classes of clients is

       Mwm*resource_id

       Specific client specifications take precedence over the specifications  for  all  clients.
       For  example, Mwm*windowMenu is used to specify the window menu to be used for all classes
       of clients that don't have a window menu specified.

       The syntax for specifying resource values for windows that have an unknown name and  class
       (that is, windows that do not have a WM_CLASS property associated with them) is

       Mwm*defaults*resource_id

       For  example,  Mwm*defaults*iconImage  is  used  to  specify the icon image to be used for
       windows that have an unknown name and class.

       The following client specific resources can be specified:

   Client Specific Resources
       Name                      Class               Value Type            Default
       clientDecoration          ClientDecoration    string                all.

       clientDecoration (class  ClientDecoration)
                 This resource controls the amount of window frame decoration.  The  resource  is
                 specified  as a list of decorations to specify their inclusion in the frame.  If
                 a decoration is preceded by a minus sign, that decoration is excluded  from  the
                 frame.  The  sign of the first item in the list determines the initial amount of
                 decoration. If the sign of the  first  decoration  is  minus,  mwm  assumes  all
                 decorations are present and starts subtracting from that set. If the sign of the
                 first decoration is plus (or not specified), then mwm starts with no  decoration
                 and builds up a list from the resource.

                 An  application  can  also  specify  which  decorations  mwm should apply to its
                 windows. If it does so, mwm applies only those decorations indicated by both the
                 application  and  the  clientDecoration  resource.  Otherwise,  mwm  applies the
                 decorations indicated by the clientDecoration resource.   For  more  information
                 see the description of XmNmwmDecorations on the VendorShell(3) reference page.

                 Name         Description
                 all          Include all decorations (default value).
                 border       Window border.
                 maximize     Maximize button (includes title bar).
                 minimize     Minimize button (includes title bar).
                 none         No decorations.
                 resizeh      Border resize handles (includes border).
                 menu         Window menu button (includes title bar).
                 title        Title bar (includes border).

       Examples:  Mwm*XClock.clientDecoration: -resizeh -maximize This removes the resize handles
       and maximize button from XClock windows. Mwm*XClock.clientDecoration: menu minimize border
       This does the same thing as above. Note that either menu or minimize implies title.

       clientFunctions (class  ClientFunctions)
                 This  resource  is  used  to indicate which mwm functions are applicable (or not
                 applicable) to the client window. The value  for  the  resource  is  a  list  of
                 functions.  If  the  first function in the list has a minus sign in front of it,
                 then mwm starts with all functions and subtracts from that  set.  If  the  first
                 function  in  the  list  has a plus sign in front of it, then mwm starts with no
                 functions and builds up a list. Each function in the list must  be  preceded  by
                 the  appropriate  plus  or  minus sign and separated from the next function by a
                 space.

                 An application can also specify which functions mwm should apply to its windows.
                 If  it  does  so,  mwm  applies  only  those  functions  indicated  by  both the
                 application  and  the  clientFunctions  resource.  Otherwise,  mwm  applies  the
                 functions  indicated  by the clientFunctions resource.  For more information see
                 the description of XmNmwmFunctions on the VendorShell(3) reference page.

       The following table lists the functions available for this resource:

       Name        Description
       all         Include all functions (default value).

       none        No functions.
       resize      f.resize†.
       move        f.move†.
       minimize    f.minimize†.
       maximize    f.maximize†.
       close       f.kill†.

       †See mwmrc(4).

       focusAutoRaise (class  FocusAutoRaise)
                 When the value of this resource is True, clients are raised when  they  get  the
                 keyboard  input  focus.  If  the  value is False, the stacking of windows on the
                 display is not changed when a window gets the keyboard input focus.  The default
                 value  is  True  when  the  keyboardFocusPolicy  is  explicit and False when the
                 keyboardFocusPolicy is pointer.

       iconImage (class  IconImage)
                 This resource can be used to specify an icon image for a  client  (for  example,
                 "Mwm*myclock*iconImage").  The  resource  value  is  a  pathname for a pixmap or
                 bitmap file. The value of the (client specific) useClientIcon resource  is  used
                 to determine whether or not user supplied icon images are used instead of client
                 supplied icon images. The default value is to display a built-in window  manager
                 icon image.

       iconImageBackground (class  Background)
                 This resource specifies the background color of the icon image that is displayed
                 in the image part of an icon. The default value of this  resource  is  the  icon
                 background color (that is, specified by "Mwm*background or Mwm*icon*background).

       iconImageBottomShadowColor (class  Foreground)
                 This  resource  specifies  the  bottom  shadow  color  of the icon image that is
                 displayed in the image part of an icon. The default value of  this  resource  is
                 the icon bottom shadow color (that is, specified by Mwm*icon*bottomShadowColor).

       iconImageBottomShadowPixmap (class  BottomShadowPixmap)
                 This  resource  specifies  the  bottom  shadow  Pixmap of the icon image that is
                 displayed in the image part of an icon. The default value of  this  resource  is
                 the     icon     bottom     shadow     Pixmap    (that    is,    specified    by
                 Mwm*icon*bottomShadowPixmap).

       iconImageForeground (class  Foreground)
                 This resource specifies the foreground color of the icon image that is displayed
                 in  the  image  part  of  an  icon.  The  default  value of this resource varies
                 depending on the icon background.

       iconImageTopShadowColor (class  Background)
                 This resource specifies the top shadow color of the icon image that is displayed
                 in the image part of an icon. The default value of this resource is the icon top
                 shadow color (that is, specified by Mwm*icon*topShadowColor).

       iconImageTopShadowPixmap (class  TopShadowPixmap)
                 This resource specifies the  top  shadow  Pixmap  of  the  icon  image  that  is
                 displayed  in  the  image part of an icon. The default value of this resource is
                 the icon top shadow pixmap (that is, specified by Mwm*icon*topShadowPixmap).

       matteBackground  (class  Background)
                 This resource specifies the background color of the matte,  when  matteWidth  is
                 positive.  The  default  value  of  this resource is the client background color
                 (that is, specified by "Mwm*background or Mwm*client*background).

       matteBottomShadowColor (class  Foreground)
                 This resource specifies the bottom shadow color of the matte, when matteWidth is
                 positive.  The  default value of this resource is the client bottom shadow color
                 (that is, specified by Mwm*bottomShadowColor or Mwm*client*bottomShadowColor).

       matteBottomShadowPixmap (class  BottomShadowPixmap)
                 This resource specifies the bottom shadow Pixmap of the matte,  when  matteWidth
                 is  positive.  The  default  value  of this resource is the client bottom shadow
                 pixmap     (that     is,     specified     by     Mwm*bottomShadowPixmap      or
                 Mwm*client*bottomShadowPixmap).

       matteForeground (class  Foreground)
                 This  resource  specifies  the foreground color of the matte, when matteWidth is
                 positive. The default value of this resource  is  the  client  foreground  color
                 (that is, specified by Mwm*foreground or Mwm*client*foreground).

       matteTopShadowColor (class  Background)
                 This  resource  specifies  the top shadow color of the matte, when matteWidth is
                 positive. The default value of this resource is  the  client  top  shadow  color
                 (that is, specified by Mwm*topShadowColor or Mwm*client*topShadowColor).

       matteTopShadowPixmap (class  TopShadowPixmap)
                 This  resource  specifies the top shadow pixmap of the matte, when matteWidth is
                 positive. The default value of this resource is the  client  top  shadow  pixmap
                 (that is, specified by "Mwm*topShadowPixmap or Mwm*client*topShadowPixmap).

       matteWidth (class  MatteWidth)
                 This resource specifies the width of the optional matte. The default value is 0,
                 which effectively disables the matte.

       maximumClientSize (class  MaximumClientSize)
                 This resource is either a size specification or a direction that indicates how a
                 client  window is to be maximized. The resource value can be specified as a size
                 specification widthxheight. The width and height are interpreted  in  the  units
                 that  the  client  uses  (for  example, for terminal emulators this is generally
                 characters).  Alternately,  "vertical"  or  "horizontal"  can  be  specified  to
                 indicate the direction in which the client maximizes.

                 If  this  resource  is  not specified, the maximum size from the WM_NORMAL_HINTS
                 property is used if set. Otherwise the default  value  is  the  size  where  the
                 client  window with window management borders fills the screen. When the maximum
                 client  size  is  not  determined  by  the   maximumClientSize   resource,   the
                 maximumMaximumSize resource value is used as a constraint on the maximum size.

       useClientIcon (class  UseClientIcon)
                 If the value given for this resource is True, a client-supplied icon image takes
                 precedence over a user-supplied icon image. The default value  is  True,  giving
                 the  client-supplied  icon  image  higher precedence than the user-supplied icon
                 image.

       usePPosition (class  UsePPosition)
                 This resource specifies whether Mwm honors program specified position  PPosition
                 specified  in  the  WM_NORMAL_HINTS property in the absence of an user specified
                 position. Setting this resource to  on,  causes  mwm  to  always  honor  program
                 specified  position.  Setting  this resource to off, causes mwm to always ignore
                 program specified position. Setting  this  resource  to  the  default  value  of
                 nonzero cause mwm to honor program specified position other than (0,0).

       windowMenu (class  WindowMenu)
                 This resource indicates the name of the menu pane that is posted when the window
                 menu is popped up (usually by pressing button 1 on the window menu button on the
                 client  window  frame). Menu panes are specified in the mwm resource description
                 file. Window menus can be customized on a client class basis by creating  custom
                 menus  in your mwmrc file (see mwmrc(4) and specifying resources to activate the
                 custom menus. The resources have the form Mwm*  client_name_or_class*windowMenu.
                 The default value of this resource is DefaultWindowMenu.

   Resource Description File
       The  mwm resource description file is a supplementary resource file that contains resource
       descriptions that are referred to by entries in the resource manager property (see xrdb(1)
       and  the  defaults  files  (.Xdefaults,  app-defaults/Mwm  ).  It contains descriptions of
       resources that are to be used by mwm, and that cannot be easily encoded  in  the  defaults
       files  (a bitmap file is an analogous type of resource description file). A particular mwm
       resource description file can be selected using the configFile resource.

       The following types of resources can be described in the mwm resource description file:

       Buttons   Window manager functions can be bound (associated) with button events.

       Keys      Window manager functions can be bound (associated) with key press events.

       Menus     Menu panes can be used for the window menu  and  other  menus  posted  with  key
                 bindings and button bindings.

                 The mwm resource description file is described in mwmrc(4).

   Environment
       The  mwm  window  manager  uses  the  environment variable HOME specifying the user's home
       directory.

       The mwm window manager uses the environment variable LANG specifying the user's choice  of
       language for the mwm message catalog and the mwm resource description file.

       The  mwm  window  uses  the  environment  variable  XFILESEARCHPATH,  XUSERFILESEARCHPATH,
       XAPPLRESDIR, XENVIRONMENT, LANG,  and  HOME  in  determining  search  paths  for  resource
       defaults  files.   The  mwm  window  manager  may also us XBMLANGPATH to search for bitmap
       files.

       The mwm window manager reads the $HOME/.motifbind file if it exists to install  a  virtual
       key  bindings  property  on  the  root  window. For more information on the content of the
       .motifbind file, see

       The mwm window manager uses the environment variable MWMSHELL (or SHELL,  if  MWMSHELL  is
       not set), specifying the shell to use when executing commands via the f.exec function.
