NAME
     windows - customization panel for setting various 4Dwm resources

SYNOPSIS
     /usr/sbin/windows

DESCRIPTION
     The windows customization panel allows the user to set certain IRIX
     Interactive Desktop resources applicable to the SGI window manager
     (4Dwm).  The following is a list of resources configurable via the
     windows customization panel:

	 Toolchest Orientation	   (horizontal/vertical)
	 Keyboard Focus		   (click to type/point to type)
	 Display Windows Overview  (on/off)
	 Opaque Window Move	   (on/off)
	 Auto Window Placement	   (on/off)
	 Save Windows & Desks	   (continuously/explicitly)

     If Save Windows & Desks is set to Explicitly, the Set Home Session button
     can be used to save the current state of your windows on the desktop.

     When Toolchest Orientation, Keyboard Focus or Display Windows Overview is
     modified, a notifier appears stating that the change will not take effect
     fully until the window manager is restarted.  Since 4Dwm activates these
     window settings, it must be restarted to apply the changes fully.
     Restarting 4Dwm usually takes a few seconds.

     For more information about the entire IRIX Interactive Desktop
     environment and about the XUSERFILESEARCHPATH environment variable, see
     the IID(1) man page.

FILES
     $HOME/.Sgiresources

     The windows panel saves the user's settings in the $HOME/.Sgiresources
     file.  If the user has a .Xdefaults or .Xresources file that contains
     resources that this customization panel modifies, the default files will
     take precedence over .Sgiresources.

NOTES
     Like most other customization panels, the windows panel has the
     ``runonce'' feature, meaning only one instance of the application will
     run at one time.  Attempting to launch the application a second time will
     have the effect of deiconifying the application window or popping it to
     the top on the current desk.

     Unlike most other SGI applications, the windows panel will not be
     restored at login by 4Dwm session management.  This avoids the windows
     panel being remembered as part of the user's session, when the user
     chooses to Save Windows & Desks Explicitly.
