NAME

       lwm - Lightweight Window Manager for the X Window System

SYNTAX

       lwm [ -s session-id ]

DESCRIPTION

       Lwm  is a window manager for the X Window System. It provides enough features to allow the
       user to manage their windows, and no more.

       Windows are surrounded by a frame with a titlebar at the top next  to  a  small  box.  The
       frame  is a grey colour for all windows except that which has the input focus, where it is
       black.

       In the default configuration, lwm uses the enter-to-focus scheme, where moving the pointer
       into  a  window  gives that window the input focus.  Lwm may also be configured to use the
       click-to-focus scheme, where a window must be clicked on (with any button) to receive  the
       input focus. Clicking on a window in this mode causes the window to be raised. Note that a
       click used to focus a window is always swallowed by lwm, so clicking a  button  in  a  new
       window requires two clicks.

       A button 1 click on a window frame brings that window to the top. Dragging button 1 on the
       frame of a resizable window repositions that edge of the window. If a corner  rather  than
       an  edge  is  dragged,  then  both edges forming the corner are repositioned. While you're
       reshaping a window, a little window pops up to show you the window's current size.

       In the default configuration, button 1 on the root window does nothing.

       Button 2 is used to drag a window by its frame, repositioning the window  but  maintaining
       its position in the window stack.

       In the default configuration, button 2 on the root window brings up a new shell.

       A  button  3  click  on  a  window frame hides that window.  Pressing button 3 on the root
       window brings up a menu of all the hidden windows.  Releasing the  button  while  over  an
       item will unhide the named window.

       A  button  3  click  in  the frame while Shift is held down pushes the window to the back,
       under any other windows. (Users with 4-button mice are  encouraged  to  use  their  fourth
       button for this function.)

       A  click  with  any  button inside the little white box in a window's frame can be used to
       close the window.
