tixMwm(n) Tix Built-In Commands tixMwm(n)______________________________________________________________________________NAMEtixMwm - Communicate with the Motif(tm) window manager.
SYNOPSIStixMwm option pathName ?args?
COMMAND OPTIONStixMwm decoration pathName ?option? ?value ...?
When no options are given, this command returns the values of
all the decorations options for the toplevel window with the
pathName.
When only one option is given without specifying the value, the
current value of that option is returned.
When more than one "option value" pairs are passed to this com‐
mand, the specified values will be assigned to the corresponding
options. As a result, the appearance of the Motif decorations
around the toplevel window will be changed.
Possible options are: -border, -menu, -maximize, -minimize,
-resizeh and -title. The value must be a Boolean value. The val‐
ues returned by this command are undefined when the window is
not managed by mwm.
tixMwm ismwmrunning pathName
This returns true if mwm is running on the screen where the
specified window is located, false otherwise.
tixMwm protocol pathName
When no additional options are given, this command returns all
protocols associated with this toplevel window.
tixMwm protocol pathName activate protocol_name
Activate the mwm protocol message in mwm's menu.
tixMwm protocol pathName add protocol_name menu_message
Add a new mwm protocol message for this toplevel window. The
message is identified by the string name specified in proto‐
col_name. A menu item will be added into mwm's menu as specified
by menu_message. Once a new mwm protocol message is added to a
toplevel, it can be catched by the TK wm protocol command. Here
is an example:
tixMwm protocol . add MY_PRINT_HELLO \
{"Print Hello" _H Ctrl<Key>H}
wm protocol . MY_PRINT_HELLO {puts Hello}
tixMwm protocol pathName deactivate protocol_name
Deactivate the mwm protocol message in mwm's menu.
tixMwm protocol pathName delete protocol_name
Delete the mwm protocol message from mwm's menu. Please note
that the window manager protocol handler associated with this
protocol (by the wm protocol command) is not deleted automati‐
cally. You have to delete the protocol handle explicitly. E.g.:
tixMwm protocol . delete MY_PRINT_HELLO
wm protocol . MY_PRINT_HELLO {}
BUGS
On some versions of Mwm, the -border will not disappear unless -resizeh
is turned off. Also, the -title will not disappear unless all of
-title, -menu, -maximize and -minimize are turned off.
