_ Means, that old size is kept.
Samples:
'<X>,<Y>', '<W>,<H>', '<PRO>,<PRO>', '<PRO>'
Examples:
size -e pro -R win -g '<PRO>,<PRO>'
size -e px -g '<W>,<H>'
move -e pro -R win -d east -g '<PRO>'
To move windows:
xwinpp -I ./list -p | xwinmo -I - -m -V -e px -g 640,800
xwinpp -I ./list -p | xwinmo -I - -m -e pro -R workarea -g 50,_
xwinpp -I ./list -p | xwinmo -I - -m -e pro -R window -g 100 -d east
xwinpp -I ./list -p | xwinmo -I - -M -W -D i:1
xwinpp -I ./list -D i:1 -p | xwinmo -I - -M -D curr
XWINMO_INPUT_FILE
Use this instead of option -I.
- You may write all commands and options without masking
--. So, instead of--helpyou may usehelp. - If no workarea geo is set,
xwinmo(1) uses<_NET_WORKAREA>.
