.Sh DESCRIPTION
.Nm
is a window manager without fat library dependencies, fancy graphics or
dependence on a mouse.
.Pp
The screen can be split into non-overlapping frames.
All windows are kept maximized inside their frames.
.Pp
All interaction with the window manager is done through keystrokes.
.Nm
has a prefix map to minimize key clobbering.
.Pp
The options are as follows:
.Bl -tag -width Bs
.It Fl c Ar command
Send
.Nm
a command.
There must be a
.Nm
instance running as window manager for the given display/screen for this to
work.
Do not forget to quote the command if it contains spaces.
For example:
.Pp
.Dl Nm Fl c Qq Ar "echo hello world"
.It Fl d Ar display
Set the X display to use or send commands to.
.It Fl f Ar filename
Specify an alternate configuration file.
If this is not given,
.Nm
will try
.Pa $HOME/.config/sdorfehs/config
and execute each command when starting up.
.It Fl h
Show summary of options.
.It Fl i
Execute commands given with
.Fl c
in interactive mode.
That means it will behave exactly as if called with
.Ic C\-a \&:
like prompting for missing arguments and things like that.
.It Fl s Ar number
Only use the specified screen.
.El
.Sh KEY BINDINGS
To avoid conflicts with other programs, all default

.El
.It Ic alias Ar alias command
Add
.Ar alias
as new way to call
.Ar command .
.It Ic bind Ar key command
alias for
.Qq Ic definekey Li root Ar key command
.It Ic banish
.Pq Ic C\-a b
Banish the rat cursor to the lower right corner of the screen.
.It Ic banishrel
Banish the rat cursor to the lower right corner of the current window.
If there isn't a window in the current frame, it banishes the rat cursor
to the lower right corner of the frame.
.It Ic chdir Op Ar directory
If the optional argument is given, change the current directory of
.Nm
to
.Ar directory .
If nothing is given, change it to the value of the environment variable
.Qq Ev HOME .
.It Ic clrunmanaged
Clears the unmanaged window list.
.It Ic cnext
Like
.Ic next
but switch to the next window with another resource class than the
current one.
(That means the next window belonging to another type of application
than the current one.)
.It Ic cprev
Like
.Ic prev
but switch to the previous window with another resource class than the
current one.
(That means the previous window belonging to another type of application
than the current one.)
.It Ic colon Ar sdorfehs\-command Pq Ic C\-a \&:
Execute
.Ar sdorfehs\-command
interactively.
(i.e. ask for possible missing arguments.)
.It Ic cother
Like
.Ic other
but switch to the window of the current vscreen that was last accessed and
has another resource class but is not currently visible.
.It Ic curframe Pq Ic C\-a F
Show a bar marking the current frame.
.It Ic definekey Ar keymap key command
Add a new key binding in
.Ar keymap
for
.Ar key
to execute
.Ar command .
Default keymaps are
.Li top
normally only containing
.Ic C\-a ,
which reads a key from
.Li root ,
containing all the normal commands.
.Pp
Note that you have to describe ":" by "colon", "!" by "exclam" and so on.
If you cannot guess a name of a key, try either
.Ic C\-a Ar key
and look at the error message, or try
.Ic :describekey Li root
and pressing the key.
.It Ic dedicate Op Cm 0 | 1
Consider the current frame dedicated/chaste
.Pq Cm 1
or promiscuous
.Pq Cm 0 .
.Pp
A dedicated frame will not accept new windows.
When new windows are to be focused, they will be opened in a non-dedicated
frame instead.
.Pp
If no argument is given, toggle the current dedicateness.
By default no windows are dedicated.
.It Ic delete Pq Ic C\-a k
Close the current window.
.It Ic delkmap Ar keymap
Deletes the keymap named
.Ar keymap ,
that was generated with
.Ic newkmap .
The keymaps
.Li top
(or whatever was specified by
.Ic set Ar topkmap )
and
.Li root
cannot be deleted.
.It Ic describekey Ar keymap
Grab the next key.
Similar to
.Ic readkey ,
.Ic describekey
shows only the command in
.Ar keymap ,
that would be executed by
.Ic readkey .
.It Ic echo Ar text
Show
.Ar text
as
.Nm
message.
.It Ic escape Ar key
Update the default escape key to
.Ar key .
.Pp
Strictly speaking it updates the
.Ic readkey Li root
command in the keymap
.Li top
to
.Ar key ,
the
.Ic other
binding
in
.Li root
to
.Ar key ,
and
.Ic meta
binding in
.Li root
to
.Ar key
without modifiers or
.Ic "C\-" Ns Ar key
if
.Ar key
has no modifiers.
(If
.Ic set Ar topkmap
was called with an argument other than
.Ar top
that will be used instead of
.Ar top . )
.It Ic exchangedown Pq Ic C\-a C\-Down
Exchange the window in the current frame with the window in the frame
below the current frame.
.It Ic exchangeleft Pq Ic C\-a C\-Left
Exchange the window in the current frame with the window in the frame
left of the current frame.

Exchange the window in the current frame with the window in the frame
right of the current frame.
.It Ic exchangeup Pq Ic C\-a C\-Up
Exchange the window in the current frame with the window in the frame
above the current frame.
.It Ic exec Ar shell\-command Pq Ic C\-a \&!
Spawn a shell executing
.Ar shell\-command .
.It Ic execa Ar shell\-command
Spawn a shell executing
.Ar shell\-command ,
without remembering the current frame, so that _NET_WM_PID declaring
programs will be placed into the frame active when they open a window
instead of the frame active when
.Nm
gets this command.
.It Ic execf Ar frame shell\-command
Spawn a shell executing
.Ar shell\-command ,
showing _NET_WM_PID supporting programs in the given frame instead of
the frame selected when this program is run.
.It Ic execv Ar vscreen shell\-command
Spawn a shell within a specific vscreen
.Ar vscreen ,
executing
.Ar shell\-command
as in the 'exec' command (i.e., using "sh -c").  This is not likely to work
well with 'winaddcurvscreen' set to 1 anywhere in the configuration file.
.It Ic execw Ar shell\-command
Spawn a shell executing
.Ar shell\-command ,
but wait for it to finish.  This should behave the same as
.Ar exec
but will wait for completion.  Use timeout(1) if it might hang, or
.Nm
will hang itself waiting for completion.  Use the 'exec' shell builtin as the
first word in the command string to get similar behavior to
.Ar execa
owing to the forked pid remaining stable and known to
.Nm .
.It Ic fdump Op Ar screenno
Output the defining data for all frames of the current screen, or
for screen number
.Ar screenno
if this is specified.
.It Ic focus Pq Ic C\-a Tab

Switch to the frame to the right of the current one.
.It Ic focusprev
Focus the previous frame.
.It Ic focusup Pq Ic C\-a Up
Switch to the frame above the current one.
.It Ic frestore Ar frames
Replace the current frames with the ones specified in
.Ar frames
in the format as generated by
.Ic fdump .
.It Ic fselect Oo Ar frameno Oc Pq Ic C\-a f
If an argument is supplied, switch to a frame given by number
.Ar frameno .
.Pp
If no argument is given, show a frame selector in each frame and wait for
a key to be pressed.
If the key matches an existing frame selector, this frame gets focused.
.Pp
Frame selectors are by default the numbers starting with zero, but they
can be changed by
.Ic set Ns
ting
.Ar framesels .
.It Ic getenv Ar variable
Output the value of the environment variable
.Ar variable .
.It Ic getsel
Paste the current X Selection into the current window.
.It Ic gravity Op Cm nw | w | sw | n | c | s | ne | e | se
Change how in its frame the current window is aligned.
.It Ic help Op Ar keymap
If the optional parameter
.Ar keymap
is given, list all keybindings in this keymap, otherwise list all key
bindings in keymap
.Li root .
.It Ic hsplit Oo Ar l Ns Li / Ns Ar p | Oo Li \- Oc Ns Ar pixels Oc Pq Ic C\-a S
Split the current frame into left frame and a right frame.
If no parameter is given, split in halves.
If two numbers separated by a slash

.Ar l
times the
.Ar p Ns
th
part and the right one
.Pq Ar p Li \- Ar l
times the
.Ar p Ns
th
part of the prior width.
Otherwise the right half is
.Ar pixels
wide or the left one is
.Ar pixels
wide, depending whether there is
.Ql \-
in front of the number or not.
.It Ic inext
Like
.Ic next
but switch to the next window with the same resource class as the
current one.
(That means the next window belonging to the same application
as the current one.)
.It Ic info Pq Ic C\-a i
Output the current the width, height, window number and window name of
the current window.
.Po
What name means is chosen by
.Dq Ic set Ar winname .
.Pc
.It Ic iprev
Like
.Ic prev
but switch to the previous window with the same resource class as the
current one.
(That means the previous window belonging to the same application as the
current one.)
.It Ic iother
Like
.Ic other
but switch to the window of the current vscreen that was last accessed and
has the same resource class but is not currently visible.
.It Ic kill Pq Ic C\-a K

.Ar keymap
if supplied.
Otherwise what
.Ar key
is bound to in keymap
.Li root .
.It Ic listhook Ar event
List all commands specified with
.Ic addhook
to be executed when even
.Ar event
occurs.
.It Ic meta Oo Ar key Oc Pq Ic C\-a t
Send the escape key (that which normally is
.Ic C\-a )
to the current window.
If a
.Ar key
is specified, this is sent instead.
Note that some applications by default ignore the synthetic key that is
sent using this command as it is considered a security hole.
xterm is one such application.
.It Ic newkmap Ar keymap
Generate a new keymap named
.Ar keymap .
This keymap can be used to add new key-command mappings to it with
.Ic definekey
and can be called with
.Ic readkey .
.It Ic next Pq Ic C\-a Return | C\-a n | C\-a space
Switch to the next window in the current vscreen.
.It Ic nextscreen Pq Ic C\-a N
Switch to the next screen. (If you have multiple physical ones.)

Remove all frames on the current screen except the current frame and
maximize this one to the size of the whole screen.
.It Ic other Pq Ic C\-a C\-a
Switch to the window of the current vscreen that was last
accessed but is not currently visible.
.It Ic prev Pq Ic C\-a p
Switch to the previous window in the current vscreen.
.It Ic prevscreen Pq Ic C\-a P
Switch to the previous screen. (If you have multiple physical ones.)
.It Ic prompt Op Ar prompt
.Nm
will ask the user for input, showing

user has made.
Note that this command probably does not make much sense in interactive
mode.
.It Ic putsel Ar x\-selection
Replace the X selection with the text
.Ar x\-selection .
It can be inserted into the current window with
.Ic getsel .
.It Ic quit
Quit
.Nm .

Simulate pressing|releasing rat button
.Ar button
(1=left button if none given).
.It Ic readkey Ar keymap
Grab the next key pressed, and execute the command associated to this key
in
.Ar keymap .
To show it is waiting for a key,
.Nm
will change the rat cursor to a square if
.Va waitcursor
is set.
This command is perhaps best described with its usage in the default
configuration: by pressing
.Ic C\-a ,
which is the only key in the keymap
top ,
the command
.Qq Ic readkey Ar root
is executed.
The next key then executes the command in keymap
.Li root
belonging to
this command.
.It Ic redisplay Pq Ic C\-a l
Extend the current window to the whole size of its current frame and
redisplay it.
(Useful to redisplay normal windows or bring transient windows to the
full size of the frame as only normal windows are maximized by
.Nm )
.It Ic redo Pq Ic C\-a U
Revert the last
.Ic undo
of frame changes.
.It Ic remhook Ar event command
Remove command
.Ar command
from the list of commands to be called when event
