NAME

       JWM - Joe's Window Manager

SYNOPSIS

       jwm [options]

DESCRIPTION

       JWM is a window manager for the X11 Window System.

OPTIONS

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

       -exit
              Exit JWM by sending _JWM_EXIT to the root window.

       -f file
              Specify an alternate configuration file to use.

       -h
              Display a help message and exit.

       -p
              Parse  the  configuration file and exit.  It is a good idea to use this after making modifications
              to the configuration file to ensure there are no errors.

       -restart
              Restart JWM by sending _JWM_RESTART to the root window.

       -reload
              Reload menus by sending _JWM_RELOAD to the root window.

       -v
              Display version information and exit.

FILES

       /etc/jwm/jwm/system.jwmrc
              The default JWM configuration file.

       ~/.jwmrc
              Default local configuration file. Copy the default configuration file to  this  location  to  make
              user-specific changes.  See also, option -f.

CONFIGURATION

       OVERVIEW
              Configuration  of JWM is done by editing ".jwmrc" (or the configuration file specified with the -f
              option).  This file is XML making it easy  to  edit,  either  by  hand  or  programmatically.  The
              example.jwmrc  gives  an  example configuration file.  Before restarting JWM, it is a good idea to
              run "jwm -p" to make sure the configuration file is free of errors.   Otherwise  you  may  end  up
              without a root menu.

       ROOT MENU
              The  root  menu in JWM is the primary way of starting programs.  It also provides a way to restart
              or exit the window manager.  The  outer  most  tag  is  RootMenu.  The  following  attributes  are
              supported:

              onroot list
                     Determine  which  buttons on the root window activate the menu.  This is a list of integers
                     specifying buttons. The default is "123".  Note that multiple root menus may  be  specified
                     by  using  different  buttons  for  different menus. The range of possible values is 0 to 9
                     inclusive as well as a to z inclusive, providing for up to 36 menus.  Note  that  only  the
                     numeric values map to mouse buttons.

              height int
                     Height  of  each  menu item in pixels. 0 indicates the largest menu item will determine the
                     height. The default is 0.

              labeled bool
                     Determines if a label appears at the top of the menu. Default is false.

              label string
                     The label to display at the top of the menu. Default is "JWM".

              Within the RootMenu tag, the following tags are supported:

              Menu

                     height int
                            Height of each menu item in pixels. 0 indicates the largest menu item will determine

              or  more Class tags is specified, at least one class must match.  JWM matches using extended POSIX
              regular expressions for both Name and Class  tags.   See  regex(7).   Within  the  Group  tag  the
              following tags are supported:

              Name

       FONTS
              Fonts  for  various  parts of JWM are specified within a Font tag. The text of this tag determines
              the font to use.  This can be either a standard X font string or, if compiled with XFT support, an
              XFT font string.

       COLORS
              Colors  for  various parts of JWM are specified within specific tags (described above). Colors may
              either be hex triplets in RGB format (for example, #FF0000 is red) or by a name recognized by  the
              X  server.   For  components  that  support  gradients, two colors may be specified separated by a
              colon.

       ICONS
              Icons for windows that don't supply an icon via the _NET_WM_ICON hint are located by searching the
              icon  search  path(s)  for  an  icon whose name (minus the ".xpm" or ".png" extension) matches the
              instance name of the window as returned in the WM_CLASS hint. If this lookup fails, a default icon
              is  supplied.  This  icon will be displayed for the window on it's title bar and on the task list.
              Icons that are not an appropriate size will be scaled. Square icons work best.

              For menu items, the icon path is searched for a match. the icon specified for a menu item must  be
              the  exact  name  of  the  icon  file with the extension.  If no match is found, a blank area will
              appear where the icon should appear.  If an icon is not specified for any menu item in a menu,  no
              space will be allocated for icons.

              Zero  or  more  IconPath  tags may be specified. The text of this tag is assumed to be an absolute
              directory path to a directory containing XPM, PNG, and/or JPEG icons.  When searching  for  icons,
              if  multiple  paths are provided, they will be searched in order until a match is made.  Note that
              icon, PNG, JPEG, and XPM support are compile-time options.

       KEY BINDINGS
              Keyboard bindings in JWM are specified in Key tags.  Either the key or keycode attributes must  be
              specified  to  determine  which  key will cause an action. The optional attribute, mask, specifies
              what key mask, if any, must be in effect for the binding to match. Finally, the text  of  the  Key
              tag is the action to perform.

              One or more of the following key masks may be specified for mask (see xmodmap(1)):

                     A      The "Alt" key (mod1).

                     C      Control

                     S      Shift

                     1      mod1

                     2      mod2

                     3      mod3

                     4      mod4

                     5      mod5

              The  key  specified  in  the key attribute must contain a valid key string for XStringToKeysym(3).
              These values are usually what one would expect (for example, the escape key is called "Escape").

              Valid actions for a key binding are:

                     up     Move up.

                     down   Move down.

       MOUSE BINDINGS
              Any button other than the scroll wheel (buttons 4 and 5) on the root window will bring up the root
              menu  unless  otherwise  specified  via the onroot attribute of RootMenu. Scrolling up on the root
              window switches to the left desktop and scrolling down switches to the right desktop.

              Button 1 (typically the left button):
                     Over the border, dragging resizes the window.  Over  the  title  bar,  dragging  moves  the
                     window  and  double  clicking  toggles the maximized state.  Over the menu button, clicking
                     shows the menu.  Over the  minimize  button,  clicking  minimizes  the  window.   Over  the
                     maximize  button,  clicking  toggles  between maximized and normal.  Over the close button,

                     Anywhere else on a window frame, dragging while holding button  2  will  move  the  window.
                     Over a pager, switches the active desktop.

              Button 3 (typically the right button):
                     Over  the  frame, clicking shows the window menu.  On the minimize button, clicking toggles
                     between shaded and unshaded.  On the maximize button, clicking toggles between horizontally
                     maximized  and  normal.  On the close button, clicking closes the window.  Over a task bar,
                     shows the window menu.  Over a pager, dragging while holding button 3 will move a window.

              Scrolling up over the title bar will shade the window and scrolling down will unshade the  window.
              When  a  menu  is  open,  the scroll wheel will move through menu items.  When over the pager, the
              scroll wheel will switch desktops.  When over a task list, the scroll wheel will switch windows.
