Each X screen +appears as a single \fIWindows\fP window and all X windows are contained +within this window. +(In X terminology, the \fIWindows\fP window contains the root window for +the screen) +.br +* \fIMulti-Window\fP: In this mode \fIXWin\fP uses its own integrated +window manager in order to handle the top-level X windows, in such a +way that they appear as normal \fIWindows\fP windows. +.br +* \fIRootless\fP: In this mode the X server works in a window +containing the whole screen but this root window (traditionally covered with an X hatch +pattern) is hidden from view, so only top-level X windows are seen. + +.SH OPTIONS +In addition to the normal server options described in the \fIXserver(1)\fP +manual page, \fIXWin\fP accepts the following command line switches, +\fIall\fP of which are optional: + +.SH OPTIONS CONTROLLING WINDOWING MODE +Only one of these options may be specified. +.TP 8 +.B (default) +Windowed or rooted mode. +Each X screen appears as a single \fIWindows\fP window and all X windows are +contained within those windows. +.TP 8 +.B \-multiwindow +Each top-level X window appears in its own \fIWindows\fP window. +Also start the integrated \fIWindows\fP-based window manager. +.TP 8 +.B \-rootless +Run the server in rootless mode. +The X server works on a window covering the whole screen but the root window +is hidden from view. +.TP 8 +.B \-mwextwm +Experimental. +The mode combines \fB\-rootless\fP mode drawing with native \fIWindows\fP +window frames managed by the experimental external window manager \fIxwinwm\fP. +.PP +\fBNOTE:\fP \fI-multiwindow\fP mode uses its own internal window manager. +All other modes require an external window manager in order to move, resize, and perform other +operations on the individual X windows. + +.SH OPTIONS FOR SPECIFYING X SCREENS +An X display may be composed of multiple screens. +The default behaviour is to create a single screen 0 that is roughly the +size of useful area of the primary monitor (allowing for any window +decorations and the task-bar). + +Screen specific parameters, such as \fB\-fullscreen\fP, can be applied as a +default to all screens by placing those screen specific parameters +before any \fB\-screen\fP parameter. Screen specific parameters placed after +the first \fB\-screen\fP parameter will apply only to the immediately +preceeding \fB\-screen\fP parameter. +.TP 8 +.B \-[no]multimonitors or \-[no]multiplemonitors +Create a screen 0 that covers all monitors [the primary monitor] on a system with +multiple monitors. +This option is currently enabled by default in \fB\-multiwindow\fP mode. +.TP 8 +.B "\-screen \fIscreen_number\fP [\fIW\fP \fIH\fP [\fIX\fP \fIY\fP] | [[\fIW\fPx\fIH\fP[+\fIX\fP+\fIY\fP]][@\fIM\fP]] ] " +Create screen number +.I screen_number +and optionally specify it's +.I height, +.I width +and +.I initial position. +Additionally a +.I +monitor number +(which count from 1) can be specified to place the screen on, +at which point, all coordinates become relative to that monitor. +Screen numbers must be contiguous starting from zero and cannot be duplicated. + +Examples: + +.I " -screen 0 @1 ; on 1st monitor using its full resolution (the default)" + +.I " -screen 0 800x600+100+100@2 ; on 2nd monitor offset 100,100 size 800x600" + +.I " -screen 0 1024x768@3 ; on 3rd monitor size 1024x768" + +.SH OPTIONS CONTROLLING THE APPEARANCE OF THE X SCREEN WINDOWS +These parameters only apply to windowed mode screens i.e. not +in \fB-multwindow\fP or \fB-rootless\fP mode +.TP 8 +.B "\-fullscreen" +The X server window takes the full screen, covering completely the +\fIWindows\fP desktop. +.TP 8 +.B \-nodecoration +Do not give the Cygwin/X window a \fIWindows\fP window border, title bar, +etc. +This parameter is ignored when the \fB\-fullscreen\fP parameter is specified. +.TP 8 +.B \-scrollbars +In windowed mode, allow screens bigger than the \fIWindows\fP desktop. +Moreover, if the window has decorations, one can now resize it. +This parameter is ignored when the \fB\-fullscreen\fP parameter is specified. + + +.SH OPTIONS CONTROLLING WINDOWS INTEGRATION +.TP 8 +.B \-[no]clipboard +Enables [disables] the integration between the Cygwin/X clipboard and +\fIWindows\fP clipboard. The default is enabled. +.TP 8 +.B "\-emulate3buttons [\fItimeout\fP]" +Emulate a three button mouse; pressing both buttons within +.I timeout +milliseconds causes an emulated middle button press. The default +.I timeout +is 50 milliseconds. Note that most mice with scroll wheel have middle +button functionality, usually you will need this option only if you have +a two button mouse without scroll wheel. +.TP 8 +.B \-[no]keyhook +Enable [disable] a low-level keyboard hook for catching +special keypresses like Menu and Alt+Tab and passing them to the X +Server instead of letting \fIWindows\fP handle them. +.TP 8 +.B \-lesspointer +Normally the \fIWindows\fP mouse cursor is hidden when the mouse is +over an active Cygwin/X window. This option causes the mouse cursor +also to be hidden when it is over an inactive Cygwin/X window. This +prevents the \fIWindows\fP mouse cursor from being drawn on top of the X +cursor. +This parameter has no effect unless \fB-swcursor\fP is also specified. +.TP 8 +.B \-swcursor +Disable the usage of the \fIWindows\fP cursor and use the X11 software cursor instead. +.TP 8 +.B \-[no]trayicon +Do not create a tray icon. Default is to create one +icon per screen. You can globally disable tray icons with +\fB\-notrayicon\fP, then enable it for specific screens with +\fB\-trayicon\fP for those screens. +.TP 8 +.B \-nounicodeclipboard +Do not use Unicode clipboard even if on a NT-based platform. +.TP 8 +.B \-[no]unixkill +Enable or disable the \fICtrl-Alt-Backspace\fP key combination as a +signal to exit the X Server. The \fICtrl-Alt-Backspace\fP key combination +is disabled by default. +.TP 8 +.B \-[no]winkill +Enable or disable the \fIAlt-F4\fP key combination as a signal to exit the +X Server. +The \fIAlt-F4\fP key combination is enabled by default. + +.SH DRAWING ENGINE OPTIONS +.TP 8 +.B "\-clipupdates \fInum_boxes\fP" +Specify an optional threshold, above which the regions in a shadow +update operation will be collected into a GDI clipping region. The +clipping region is then used to do a single bit block transfer that is +constrained to the updated area by the clipping region. There is some +overhead involved in creating, installing, destroying, and removing +the clipping region, thus there may not be much benefit for a small +number of boxes (less than 10). It is even possible that this +functionality does not provide a benefit at any number of boxes; we +can only determine the usefulness of this feature through testing. +This option probably has limited effect on current \fIWindows\fP versions +as they already perform GDI batching. +This parameter works in conjunction with engines 1, 2, and 4 (Shadow +GDI, Shadow DirectDraw, and Shadow DirectDraw Non-Locking, +respectively). +.TP 8 +.B "\-engine \fIengine_type_id\fP" +This option, which is intended for Cygwin/X developers, +overrides the server's automatically selected engine type. This +parameter will be ignored if the specified engine type is not +supported on the current system. The supported engine type ids are 1 +- Shadow GDI, 2 - Shadow DirectDraw, and 4 - Shadow DirectDraw Non-Locking. +Additionally, there are engines with type ids +8 - Primary DirectDraw (obsolete) and 16 - Native GDI (experimental and barely functional). +Default behavior is to determine the engine with optimum performance that +supports the specified depth and window configuration. + +.SH FULLSCREEN OPTIONS +.TP 8 +.B "\-depth \fIdepth\fP" +Specify the color depth, in bits per pixel, to use when running in +fullscreen with a DirectDraw engine. This parameter is ignored if +\fB\-fullscreen\fP is not specified. +.TP 8 +.B "\-refresh \fIrate_in_Hz\fP" +Specify an optional refresh rate to use when running in +fullscreen with a DirectDraw engine. This parameter is ignored if +\fB\-fullscreen\fP is not specified. + +.SH MISCELLANEOUS OPTIONS +See also the normal server options described in the \fIXserver(1)\fP +manual page + +.TP 8 +.B \-help +Write a help text listing supported command line options and their description to the console. +.TP 8 +.B \-ignoreinput +Ignore keyboard and mouse input. This is usually only used for testing +and debugging purposes. +.TP 8 +.B "\-logfile \fIfilename\fP" +Change the server log file from the default of \fI +__logdir__/XWin.n.log\fP, +where \fIn\fP is the display number of the XWin server, to \fIfilename\fP. +.TP 8 +.B "\-logverbose \fIlevel\fP" +Control the degree of verbosity of the log messages with the integer +parameter \fIlevel\fP. For \fIlevel\fP=0 only fatal errors are +reported, for \fIlevel\fP=1 simple information about +configuration is also given, for \fIlevel\fP=2 (default) +additional runtime information is recorded +and for \fIlevel\fP=3 detailed log +information (including trace and debug output) is produced. Bigger +values will yield a still more detailed debug output. +.TP 8 +.B \-silent-dup-error +If another instance of \fIXWin\fP with the same display number is found running, +exit silently and don't display any error message. +.TP 8 +.B "\-xkblayout \fIlayout\fP" +.TP 8 +.B "\-xkbmodel \fImodel\fP" +.TP 8 +.B "\-xkboptions \fIoption\fP" +.TP 8 +.B "\-xkbrules \fIrule\fP" +.TP 8 +.B "\-xkbvariant \fIvariant\fp" +These options configure the xkeyboard extension to load +a particular keyboard map as the X server starts. The behavior is similar +to the \fIsetxkbmap\fP program. The layout data is located at \fI +__datadir__/X11/xkb/\fP. Additional information is found in the +README files therein and in the man page of \fIsetxkbmap\fP. For example +in order to load a German layout for a pc105 keyboard one uses +the options: +.br +.I " \-xkblayout de \-xkbmodel pc105" + +Alternatively one may use the \fIsetxkbmap\fP program after \fIXWin\fP is +running. + +The default is to select a configuration matching your current layout as +reported by \fIWindows\fP, if known, or the default X server configuration +if no matching keyboard configuration was found. + +.SH UNDOCUMENTED OPTIONS +These options are undocumented. Do not use them. + +.TP 8 +.B \-emulatepseudo +Create a depth 8 PseudoColor visual when running in depths 15, 16, 24, +or 32, collectively known as TrueColor depths. +Color map manipulation is not supported, so the PseudoColor visual will +not have the correct colors. +This option is intended to allow applications which only work with a depth 8 +visual to operate in TrueColor modes. +.TP 8 +.B \-internalwm +Run the internal window manager. + +.SH LOG FILE +As it runs \fIXWin\fP writes messages indicating the most relevant events +to the console +from which it was called and to a log file that by default is located at \fI +__logdir__/XWin.0.log\fP. This file is mainly for debugging purposes. + + +.SH PREFERENCES FILE +On startup \fIXWin\fP looks for the file \fI$HOME/.XWinrc\fP or, if +the previous file does not exist, \fI +__sysconfdir__/X11/system.XWinrc\fP. \fI.XWinrc\fP allows setting +preferences for the following: +.br +* To include items into the menu associated with the \fIXWin\fP icon +which is in the \fIWindows\fP system tray. This functions in all +modes that have a tray icon. +.br +* To include items in the system menu which is associated with the \fIWindows\fP +window that \fIXWin -multiwindow\fP produces for each top-level X +window, in both the generic case and for particular programs. +.br +* To change the icon that is associated to the \fIWindows\fP window that +\fIXWin -multiwindow\fP produces for each top-level X-window. +.br +* To change the style that is associated to the \fIWindows\fP window that +\fXWin I-multiwindow\fP produces for each top-level X window. +.PP +The format of the \fI.XWinrc\fP file is given in the man page XWinrc(5). + +.SH EXAMPLES +Need some examples + + +.SH "SEE ALSO" +X(__miscmansuffix__), Xserver(1), xdm(1), xinit(1), XWinrc(__filemansuffix__), setxkbmap(1) + + +.SH BUGS +.I XWin +and this man page still have many limitations. Some of the more obvious +ones are: +.br +- The display mode can not be changed once the X server has started. +.br +- The \fIXWin\fP software is continuously developing; it is therefore possible that +this man page is not up to date. It is always prudent to +look also at the output of \fIXWin -help\fP in order to +check the options that are operative. + + +.SH AUTHORS +This list is by no means complete, but direct contributors to the +Cygwin/X project include (in alphabetical order by last name): Stuart +Adamson, Michael Bax, Jehan Bing, Lev Bishop, Dr. Peter Busch, Biju G +C, Robert Collins, Nick Crabtree, Early Ehlinger, Christopher Faylor, +John Fortin, Brian Genisio, Fabrizio Gennari, Alexander Gottwald, Ralf +Habacker, Colin Harrison, Matthieu Herrb, Alan Hourihane, Pierre A +Humblet, Harold L Hunt II, Dakshinamurthy Karra, Joe Krahn, +Paul Loewenstein, Kensuke Matsuzaki, +Takuma Murakami, Earle F.
