+.SH NAME
+xdmxconfig - a graphical configuration tool for Xdmx configuration files
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B xdmxconfig
+[filename]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.I xdmxconfig
+reads, edits, and writes configuration files for the Xdmx server. The
+grammar for the configuration file is specified in the Xdmx(1) manual
+page.
+.PP
+To start from scratch, create a "New Global" and specify the name and
+overall dimensions for the configuration. Then use "New Display" to
+enter more displays.
+.PP
+If there is more than one configuration, the configuration name button
+will bring up a selection menu.
+.PP
+In the right-hand pannel, the left mouse button will move the
+highlighted display at "tool resolution"; the middle mouse button will
+move the highlighted display by a single pixel (at "wall resolution");
+and the right mouse button will bring up a menu allowing the highlighted
+display to be edited or deleted. The arrow keys will also move the
+highlighted display by a single pixel.
+.SH BUGS
+Currently, entries with the
+.B wall
+keyword are not editable, but will be preserved in the new output file.
+The tool will quit when requested by the user, even if a configuration
+file has not been written out (i.e., without warning). The menu
+interaction should be improved (menu entries that don't currently work
+should be greyed-out, for example). The Help button does not work.
