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.
