Options, group modifier

Page 136 highlights

Switching between groups is controlled by the keysym named "Mode Switch", by attaching that keysym to some key and attaching that key to any one of the modifiers Mod1 through Mod5. This modifier is called the group modifier. Group 1 is used when the group modifier is off, and Group 2 is used when the group modifier is on. Within a group, the modifier state determines which keysym to use. The first keysym is used when the Shift and Lock modifiers are off. The second keysym is used when the Shift modifier is on, when the Lock modifier is on and the second keysym is uppercase alphabetic, or when the Lock modifier is on and is interpreted as ShiftLock. Otherwise, when the Lock modifier is on and is interpreted as CapsLock, the state of the Shift modifier is applied first to select a keysym; but if that keysym is lowercase alphabetic, then the corresponding uppercase keysym is used instead. Options Most X programs attempt to use the same names for command line options and arguments. All applications written with the X Toolkit Intrinsics automatically accept the following options: -display display This option specifies the name of the X server to use. -geometry geometry This option specifies the initial size and location of the window. -bg color, -background color Either option specifies the color to use for the window background. -bd color, -bordercolor color Either option specifies the color to use for the window border. -bw number, -borderwidth number Either option specifies the width in pixels of the window border. -fg color, -foreground color Either option specifies the color to use for text or graphics. -fn font, -font font Either option specifies the font to use for displaying text. -iconic This option indicates that the user would prefer that the application's windows initially not be visible as if the windows had be immediately iconified by the user. Window managers may choose not to honor the application's request. -name This option specifies the name under which resources for the application should be found. This option is useful in shell aliases to distinguish between invocations of an application, without resorting to creating links to alter the executable file name. -rv, -reverse Either option indicates that the program should simulate reverse video if possible, often by swapping the foreground and background colors. Not all programs honor this or implement it correctly. It is usually only used on monochrome displays. +rv This option indicates that the program should not simulate reverse video. This is used to override any defaults since reverse video doesn't always work properly. Page 136 Graphics Administration Guide for HP-UX 10.20

Switching between groups is controlled by the keysym named "Mode Switch", by attaching that keysym
to some key and attaching that key to any one of the modifiers Mod1 through Mod5. This modifier is
called the
group modifier
. Group 1 is used when the group modifier is off, and Group 2 is used when
the group modifier is on.
Within a group, the modifier state determines which keysym to use. The first keysym is used when the
Shift and Lock modifiers are off. The second keysym is used when the Shift modifier is on, when the
Lock modifier is on and the second keysym is uppercase alphabetic, or when the Lock modifier is on
and is interpreted as ShiftLock. Otherwise, when the Lock modifier is on and is interpreted as
CapsLock, the state of the Shift modifier is applied first to select a keysym; but if that keysym is
lowercase alphabetic, then the corresponding uppercase keysym is used instead.
Options
Most X programs attempt to use the same names for command line options and arguments. All
applications written with the X Toolkit Intrinsics automatically accept the following options:
-display display
This option specifies the name of the X server to use.
-geometry geometry
This option specifies the initial size and location of the window.
-bg color, -background color
Either option specifies the color to use for the window background.
-bd color, -bordercolor color
Either option specifies the color to use for the window border.
-bw number, -borderwidth number
Either option specifies the width in pixels of the window border.
-fg color, -foreground color
Either option specifies the color to use for text or graphics.
-fn font, -font font
Either option specifies the font to use for displaying text.
-iconic
This option indicates that the user would prefer that the application's windows initially not be
visible as if the windows had be immediately iconified by the user. Window managers may
choose not to honor the application's request.
-name
This option specifies the name under which resources for the application should be found. This
option is useful in shell aliases to distinguish between invocations of an application, without
resorting to creating links to alter the executable file name.
-rv, -reverse
Either option indicates that the program should simulate reverse video if possible, often by
swapping the foreground and background colors. Not all programs honor this or implement it
correctly. It is usually only used on monochrome displays.
+rv
This option indicates that the program should not simulate reverse video. This is used to override
any defaults since reverse video doesn't always work properly.
