NAME
props - graphical interface to set OpenWindows properties
SYNOPSIS
props [ -toolkitoption ... ] [ -init ]
DESCRIPTION
The props program provides a graphical interface to many
properties of OpenWindows which are controlled via X
resources. The resources props manipulates are stored in the
file called .OWdefaults in the user's home directory. This
enables props to ensure properties persist across window
sessions.
Upon window system startup, the .OWdefaults file is merged
into the X resource manager as specified in the openwin-sys
file. This occurs after xinit(1) loads
$OPENWINHOME/lib/Xdefaults or .Xdefaults in the user's home
directory if it exists. Thus, the settings in .OWdefaults
take precidence over the settings in a user's .Xdefaults
file which in turn take precidence over the system defaults
set in $OPENWINHOME/lib/Xdefaults. When properties are
changed via
props, props updates .OWdefaults and the X resource
manager.
The resources handled by props consist of two resource com-
ponents. The first component is OpenWindows. The second
resource component is the name of the particular property
being set. For example, the mouse acceleration is con-
trolled by the resource OpenWindows.MouseAcceleration. The
OpenWindows toolkits and window manager are designed to
respond to the resources manipulated by props. Systems
without the OpenWindows toolkits and window manager are not
likely to be aware of the OpenWindows resources. Thus, if
props is used in a non-OpenWindows environment, the system
will probably ignore the settings made via props.
Below is an explaination of the resources handled by props.
The second component of each resource name is listed. For
example, the name "WorkspaceColor" refers to the complete
resource name OpenWindows.WorkspaceColor.

OPTIONS
The props program accepts all standard command line options
accepted by the OLIT toolkit. In addition, it accepts the
following.
-init
This is the way props is started by xinit upon window
system initialization. This is done to ensure the state
of the following window server attributes are set in
accordance with the resources in the .OWdefaults file
in the user's home directory: key click, key repeat,
beep duration, screen saver activation and timeout.
When props is started with this option, it checks and
resets the server state for these settings if necessary
and exits. This option is only meant to be used upon
system startup.

written by the props program.

The OpenWindows environment may no longer be supported in a
future release. You may want to migrate to CDE, the Common
Desktop Environment.
