NAME

       xdmxconfig - a graphical configuration tool for Xdmx configuration files

SYNOPSIS

       xdmxconfig [filename]

DESCRIPTION

       xdmxconfig  reads, edits, and writes configuration files for the Xdmx server.  The grammar
       for the configuration file is specified in the Xdmx(1) manual page.

       To start from scratch, create a "New Global" and specify the name and  overall  dimensions
       for the configuration.  Then use "New Display" to enter more displays.

       If  there  is  more  than one configuration, the configuration name button will bring up a
       selection menu.

       In the right-hand pannel, the left mouse button will move the highlighted display at "tool
       resolution";  the  middle mouse button will move the highlighted display by a single pixel
       (at "wall resolution"); and the right mouse button will  bring  up  a  menu  allowing  the
       highlighted  display  to  be  edited  or  deleted.   The  arrow  keys  will  also move the
       highlighted display by a single pixel.

BUGS

       Currently, entries with the wall keyword are not editable, but will be  preserved  in  the
       new  output  file.  The tool will quit when requested by the user, even if a configuration
       file has not been written out (i.e., without warning).  The  menu  interaction  should  be
       improved  (menu entries that don't currently work should be greyed-out, for example).  The
       Help button does not work.
