NAME
sapphire — minimal but configurable window manager
SYNOPSIS
sapphire [-display displayname | -version ]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the sapphire command.
This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution
because the original program does not have a manual page.
sapphire is a minimal but configurable window manager for X11R6. It
supports themes in the form of X resource files, and has a customisable
menu.
The Debian version receives Debian menu entries automatically in a
"Debian" submenu by default, you can add entries specifically to
sapphire (in the rest of the menu) in the default-menu file. For more
information, see update-menus (1) and the FILES section below.
Users can also set their own options in $HOME/.sapphire/wmconf (an X
resource file).
OPTIONS
-display displayname
Use the X-server display ’displayname’.
