+xwininfo \- window information utility for X
+.SH SYNOPSIS

+[\-help] [\-id \fIid\fP] [\-root] [\-name \fIname\fP] [\-int]
+[\-children] [\-tree] [\-stats] [\-bits] [\-events] [\-size] [\-wm] [\-shape]

+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.PP
+.I Xwininfo
+is a utility for displaying information about windows.
+Various information is displayed depending on which options are selected.
+If no options are chosen, \fB\-stats\fP is assumed.
+.PP
+The user has the option of selecting the target window with
+the mouse (by clicking any mouse button in the desired window) or by
+specifying its window id on the command line with the \fB\-id\fP option.
+Or instead of specifying
+the window by its id number, the \fB\-name\fP option may be used to specify
+which window is desired by name.
+There is also a special \fB\-root\fP option to quickly obtain information
+on the screen's root window.
+.SH OPTIONS
+.PP
+.TP 8
+.B "\-help"
+Print out the `Usage:' command syntax summary.
+.PP
+.TP 8
+.B "\-id \fIid\fP"
+This option allows the user to specify a target window \fIid\fP on the
+command line rather than using the mouse to select the target window.
+This is very useful in debugging X applications where the target
+window is not mapped to the screen or where the use of the mouse might
+be impossible or interfere with the application.
+.PP
+.TP 8
+.B "\-name \fIname\fP"
+This option allows the user to specify that the window named \fIname\fP
+is the target window on the command line rather than using the mouse to
+select the target window.
+.PP
+.TP 8
+.B "\-root"
+This option specifies that X's root window is the target window.
+This is useful in situations where the root window is completely obscured.
+.PP
+.TP 8
+.B "\-int"
+This option specifies that all X window ids should be displayed as
+integer values. The default is to display them as hexadecimal values.
+.PP
+.TP 8
+.B \-children
+This option causes the root, parent, and children windows' ids and names of
+the selected window to be displayed.
+.PP
+.TP 8
+.B \-tree
+This option is like \fB\-children\fP but displays all children recursively.
+.PP
+.TP 8
+.B \-stats
+This option causes the display of various attributes pertaining to
+the location and appearance of the selected window.
+Information displayed includes the location of the window,
+its width and height, its depth, border width, visual id and class,
+colormap id if any, map state, backing-store hint, and location of the corners.
+.PP
+.TP 8
+.B \-bits
+This option causes the display of various attributes pertaining to
+the selected window's raw bits and how the selected window is to be stored.
+Displayed information includes the selected window's bit gravity,
+window gravity, backing-store hint, backing-planes value, backing pixel,
+and whether or not the window has save-under set.
+.PP
+.TP 8
+.B \-events
+This option causes the selected window's event masks to be displayed.
+Both the event mask of events wanted by some client and the event mask of
+events not to propagate are displayed.
+.PP
+.TP 8
+.B \-size
+This option causes the selected window's sizing hints to be displayed.
+Displayed information includes: for both the normal size hints and the
+zoom size hints, the user supplied location if any; the program supplied
+location if any; the user supplied size if any; the program supplied size if
+any; the minimum size if any; the maximum size if any; the resize increments
+if any; and the minimum and maximum aspect ratios if any.
+.PP
+.TP 8
+.B \-wm
+This option causes the selected window's window manager hints to be
+displayed. Information displayed may include whether or not the application
+accepts input, what the window's icon window # and name is, where the window's
+icon should go, and what the window's initial state should be.
+.PP
+.TP 8
+.B \-shape
+This option causes the selected window's window and border shape extents to
+be displayed.
+.TP 8
+.B \-frame
+This option causes window manager frames to be considered when manually
+selecting windows.
+.PP
+.TP 8
+.B \-metric
+This option causes all individual height, width, and x and y positions to be
+displayed in millimeters as well as number of pixels, based on what the
+server thinks the resolution is. Geometry specifications that are in
+\fB+x+y\fP form are not changed.
+.TP 8
+.B \-english
+This option causes all individual height, width, and x and y positions to be
+displayed in inches (and feet, yards, and miles if necessary) as well as
+number of pixels. \fB\-metric\fP and \fB\-english\fP may both be enabled at the
+same time.
+.PP
+.TP 8
+.B \-all
+This option is a quick way to ask for all information possible.
+.PP
+.TP 8
+.B \-display \fIdisplay\fP
+This option allows you to specify the server to connect to; see \fIX(__miscmansuffix__)\fP.
+.SH EXAMPLE
+.PP
+The following is a sample summary taken with no options specified:
+
+xwininfo: Window id: 0x60000f "xterm"

+ Absolute upper-left X: 2
+ Absolute upper-left Y: 85
+ Relative upper-left X: 0
+ Relative upper-left Y: 25
+ Width: 579
+ Height: 316
+ Depth: 8
+ Visual: 0x1e
+ Visual Class: PseudoColor
+ Border width: 0
+ Class: InputOutput
+ Colormap: 0x27 (installed)
+ Bit Gravity State: NorthWestGravity
+ Window Gravity State: NorthWestGravity
+ Backing Store State: NotUseful
+ Save Under State: no
+ Map State: IsViewable
+ Override Redirect State: no
+ Corners: +2+85 -699+85 -699-623 +2-623
+ -geometry 80x24+0+58
+
+.SH ENVIRONMENT
+.PP
+.TP 8
+.B DISPLAY
+To get the default host and display number.

+.IR glxinfo (__appmansuffix__)
+.SH BUGS
+Using \fB\-stats \-bits\fP shows some redundant information.
+.PP
+The \fB-geometry\fP string displayed must make assumptions about the
+window's border width and the behavior of the application and the
+window manager. As a result, the location given is not always
+correct.
