NAME
xdmxconfig - a graphical configuration tool for Xdmx
configuration files
SYNOPSIS
xdmxconfig [filename]
DESCRIPTION
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.
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.
If there is more than one configuration, the configuration name
button will bring up a selection menu.
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.
BUGS
Currently, entries with the 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.
