OPTIONS

       --help Usage information

              Turn on verbose logging

       command
              The command to run

       arguments
              Optional arguments for the command

DESCRIPTION

       This  is  a  wrapper  script  for  launching  commands via Window Switch.  If the Window Switch client is
       running (see winswitch_applet ) it will be used to start the command line specified, which will  make  it
       network transparent.

       If the client is not available, or if it declines to start the command line given (keyboard modifiers can
       be used to toggle this behaviour) the  command  line  (command  and  optional  arguments)  will  be  used
       directly.

EXAMPLE

       winswitch_command_wrapper xterm

       Will  start  an  xterm,  either  directly or via Window Switch, depending on the client configuration and
       availability.

       You can use this wrapper to modify your desktop shortcuts, the commands will still  function,  even  when
       Window Switch is not running.
