.SS NAME
.IX Subsection "NAME"
icewmhint \- set IceWM hints by window class and instance
.SS SYNOPSIS
.IX Subsection "SYNOPSIS"
\&\fBicewmhint\fR \fICLASS\fR\fB.\fR\fIINSTANCE\fR \fIOPTION\fR \fIVALUE\fR ...
.SS DESCRIPTION
.IX Subsection "DESCRIPTION"
\&\fBicewmhint\fR is a utility for passing IceWM hints to \fBicewm\fR\|(1).
\&\fBicewm\fR uses these hints for the first \fIX11 client\fR which is
subsequently started. They take precedence over hints from
the \fBicewm\-winoptions\fR\|(1) file.
.PP
A hint is a triplet consisting of a \fIclass.instance\fR, an
\&\fIIceWM winoption\fR and its value. Multiple hints can be given per
invocation of \fBicewmhint\fR.
.PP
The hints are communicated over the \f(CW\*(C`_ICEWM_WINOPTHINT\*(C'\fR property on
the root window. \fBicewmhint\fR appends hints to this property, while
\&\fBicewm\fR removes the property after reading it.
.SS OPTIONS
.IX Subsection "OPTIONS"
\&\fBicewmhint\fR recognizes the following options:
.SS "COMMAND OPTIONS"
.IX Subsection "COMMAND OPTIONS"
Only one command option can be specified per invocation. If no command
option is specified, argument parsing and processing is performed.
.IP "\fB\-h\fR, \fB\-\-help\fR" 4
.IX Item "-h, --help"
Print a brief usage statement to \fIstdout\fR and exit.
.IP "\fB\-V\fR, \fB\-\-version\fR" 4
.IX Item "-V, --version"
Print the program version to \fIstdout\fR and exit.
.IP "\fB\-C\fR, \fB\-\-copying\fR" 4
.IX Item "-C, --copying"
Print copying permissions to \fIstdout\fR for the program and exit.
.SS "GENERAL OPTIONS"
.IX Subsection "GENERAL OPTIONS"
.IP "\fB\-d\fR, \fB\-\-display\fR=\fIDISPLAY\fR" 4
.IX Item "-d, --display=DISPLAY"
Specifies the X11 DISPLAY. If unspecified, defaults to \fR\f(CB$DISPLAY\fR\fB\fR.
.SS ARGUMENTS
.IX Subsection "ARGUMENTS"
The following three arguments are required for each hint.
.IP \fICLASS\fR\fB.\fR\fIINSTANCE\fR 4
.IX Item "CLASS.INSTANCE"
Specifies the ICCCM 2.0 \fBWM_CLASS\fR property in terms of resource class
and resource name separated by a period (\f(CW\*(C`.\*(C'\fR). For example:
\&\f(CW\*(C`XTerm.xterm\*(C'\fR. Just the resource class or resource name without a dot
is also acceptable, like \f(CW\*(C`XTerm\*(C'\fR or \f(CW\*(C`xterm\*(C'\fR.
.IP \fIOPTION\fR 4
.IX Item "OPTION"
Specifies the \fIOPTION\fR to affect.
.IP \fIVALUE\fR 4
.IX Item "VALUE"
Gives the \fIVALUE\fR for the option.
.PP
Multiple hints can be given.
.SS "GENERAL OPTION ARGUMENTS"
.IX Subsection "GENERAL OPTION ARGUMENTS"
.IP "\fBicon\fR \fINAME\fR" 4
.IX Item "icon NAME"
Specifies the icon name for windows of \fICLASS\fR\fB.\fR\fIINSTANCE\fR.
\&\fINAME\fR should be the name of the icon. \fBicewm\fR\|(1) will use its
usual method to locate the icon. The default is the name provided
by window manager hints.
.IP "\fBworkspace\fR \fIWORKSPACE\fR" 4
.IX Item "workspace WORKSPACE"
Specifies the workspace on which a window of \fICLASS\fR\fB.\fR\fIINSTANCE\fR
will be initially placed. The default is the current workspace.
\&\fIWORKSPACE\fR should be a workspace number counting from 0.
.IP "\fBgeometry\fR \fIGEOMETRY\fR" 4
.IX Item "geometry GEOMETRY"
Specifies the initial geometry for windows of the given
\&\fICLASS\fR\fB.\fR\fIINSTANCE\fR. \fIGEOMETRY\fR must be a geometry that can be
parsed by \fBXParseGeometry\fR\|(3). The default is the geometry provided by
window manager hints.
.IP "\fBorder\fR \fINUMBER\fR" 4
.IX Item "order NUMBER"
The sorting order of task buttons and tray icons. The default value is
zero. Increasing positive values go farther right, while decreasing
negative values go farther left. The order option applies to the task
pane, the tray pane and the system tray.
.IP "\fBopacity\fR \fINUMBER\fR" 4
.IX Item "opacity NUMBER"
Set the _NET_WM_WINDOW_OPACITY property if \fINUMBER\fR is a value between
1 and 100. \fINUMBER\fR is interpreted as percentage of maximum opaqueness.
.IP "\fBlayer\fR {\fILAYER\fR|\fINUMBER\fR}" 4
.IX Item "layer {LAYER|NUMBER}"
This command option specifies the layer to be associated with a
\&\fICLASS\fR\fB.\fR\fIINSTANCE\fR. The default is the \f(CW\*(C`Normal\*(C'\fR layer. \fIVALUE\fR
is either a layer number or a symbolic layer name. Symbolic
layer names are:
.Sp
.Vb 9
\& Desktop (0) Desktop window.
\& Below (2) Below the default layer.
\& Normal (4) Default layer for windows.
\& OnTop (6) Above the default layer.
\& Dock (8) Docked windows at edge of screen.
\& AboveDock (10) Windows above the dock.
\& Menu (12) The layer for menu\*(Aqs.
\& Fullscreen (14) When fullscreen and focused.
\& AboveAll (15) Always above anything.
.Ve
.IP "\fBtray\fR {\fBIgnore\fR|\fBMinimized\fR|\fBExclusive\fR|\fINUMBER\fR}" 4
.IX Item "tray {Ignore|Minimized|Exclusive|NUMBER}"
Specifies the tray handling to be applied to windows with
\&\fICLASS\fR\fB.\fR\fIINSTANCE\fR. This option is specific to \fBicewm\fR\|(1) and
sets the \f(CW\*(C`_ICEWM_TRAY\*(C'\fR property associated with the window.
The default is \f(CW\*(C`Ignore\*(C'\fR. \fIVALUE\fR can be an option number
or a symbolic name as follows:
.Sp
.Vb 3
\& Ignore (0) only in task list.
\& Minimized (1) icon in tray, task list unminimized.
\& Exclusive (2) only in tray, not in task list.
.Ve
.IP "\fBframe\fR \fIlabel\fR (default: none)" 4
