Option | Description |
|---|---|
-bg <color> | Selects window background color. |
-bd <color> | Selects window border color. |
-bw <number> | Selects window border width (in pixels). |
-display <display> | Selects name of the X server to use. |
-fg <color> | Selects text or graphics color. |
-fn <font> | Selects display text font. |
-geometry <geometry> | Selects initial size and location of the window. |
-iconic | Specifies that your application should start out in an iconic state. The window manager used by your system controls the way this state is represented. |
-name <name> | Selects name under which resources for the application should be found. This option is useful when using shell aliases to distinguish between invocations of an application. It eliminates the need to create links to alter the executable file name. |
-title <string> | Selects window title. Depending on the window manager used, title information may be displayed as a window header. |
-xrm <resourcestring> | Selects name and value for the resource, overriding any defaults. It also can be used for setting resources that do not have explicit command-line arguments. For example, if you specify -xrm "*font:screen.r.7", resource font size will be set only for the current instance of the application. Resources specified this way do not become part of the resource database. |
