NAME

PWM - An X11 window manager

SYNOPSIS

X display to manage

-conffile configfile

Configuration file to use instead of default

-searchdir dir

Directory to search for configuration files and other scripts

-oneroot

On X servers with multiple (traditional non-Xinerama) screens, manage only default screen (root window), not all, as given by the -display option or in the DISPLAY environment variable.

-session session_name

Set session name. This option affects where workspace and other save files are put (~/.pwm3/session_name if option set).

-about
