+.TH XREFRESH 1 "xrefresh 1.0.6" "X Version 11"
+.SH NAME
+xrefresh - refresh all or part of an X screen
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B "xrefresh"
+[-option ...]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.PP
+.I Xrefresh
+is a simple X program that causes all or part of your screen to be repainted.
+This is useful when system messages have messed up your screen.
+.I Xrefresh
+maps a window on top of the desired area of the screen and then immediately
+unmaps it,
+causing refresh events to be sent to all applications. By default,
+a window with no background is used, causing all applications to repaint
+``smoothly.''
+However, the various options can be used to indicate that a solid background
+(of any color) or the root window background should be used instead.
+.SH ARGUMENTS
+.PP
+.TP 10
+.B \-white
+Use a white background. The screen just appears to flash quickly, and then
+repaint.
+.PP
+.TP 10
+.B \-black
+Use a black background (in effect, turning off all of the electron guns to
+the tube). This can be somewhat disorienting as everything goes black for
+a moment.
+.PP
+.TP 10
+.B \-solid \fIcolor\fP
+Use a solid background of the specified color. Try green.
+.PP
+.TP 10
+.B \-root
+Use the root window background.
+.PP
+.TP 10
+.B \-none
+This is the default. All of the windows simply repaint.
+.PP
+.TP 10
+.B \-geometry \fIWxH+X+Y\fP
+Specifies the portion of the screen to be repainted; see \fIX(7)\fP.
+.PP
+.TP 10
+.B \-display \fIdisplay\fP
+This argument allows you to specify the server and screen to
+refresh; see \fIX(7)\fP.
+.PP
+.TP 10
+.B \-version
+This argument prints the program version and exits.
+.SH X DEFAULTS
+The
+.I xrefresh
+program uses the routine
+.I XGetDefault(3)
+to read defaults, so its resource names are all capitalized.
+.PP
+.TP 8
+.B Black\fP, \fBWhite\fP, \fBSolid\fP, \fBNone\fP, \fBRoot\fP
+Determines what sort of window background to use.
+.PP
+.TP 8
+.B Geometry
+Determines the area to refresh. Not very useful.
+.SH ENVIRONMENT
+.PP
+.TP 8
+DISPLAY - To get default host and display number.
+.SH SEE ALSO
+X(7)
+.SH BUGS
+.PP
+It should have just one default type for the background.
