session.conf.5 (1976B)

      1 .TH WMI 5 User Manuals
      2 .SH NAME
      3 WMI \- Window Manager Improved, a X11 window manager for hackers
      4 .SH DESCRIPTION
      5 The file \fIsession.conf\f1 is for experts only. Here special client class/instance hints can be set and a user defined layout (workspace, layer and frame configuration) can be adjusted. Normally this is the job of WMI, but maybe there're people who want adjust everything by hand.
      6 
      7 If so, you may ask questions concerning session.conf on the wmi-devel mailinglist. This manual page only covers the basic class/instance syntax for client hints.
      8 
      9 Note that \fIsession.conf\f1 is syntactically equal to \fIwmi.session\f1 which can be used as starting point for understanding the expert syntax, which is quiet easy to understand - I think :) 
     10 .SH FORMAT
     11 The basic format of all \fI.conf\f1 and \fI.session\f1 files is as follows:
     12 
     13 key=value
     14 
     15 # comment
     16 
     17 key=\\#value # '\\' escapes special characters
     18 
     19 # special characters are: ", =, \\ and #
     20 
     21 If you've whitespaces within values, you've to quote them with '"' characters. You're free to let empty lines or whitespaces before and after keys, the '=' operator and the value. If you need a special character, you've to escape it using the '\\' character, e.g. \\=.
     22 .SH BASIC SYNTAX
     23 The basic syntax for setting client class/instance hints is as follows:
     24 
     25 client.< class >::< instance >.mode=(float|max)
     26 
     27 This setting gives WMI the hint, if an application should be running in maximized mode (default) or run as floating application.
     28 
     29 Note that borderless applications will never be maximized whatever you may define.
