_w_i_n_t_e_r_m is a shell script that runs an application in a shell window. It
uses the environment variable $_W_I_N_T_E_R_M to determine which kind of shell
window to use. Terminal emulators supported are _x_w_s_h, _w_s_h and _x_t_e_r_m. If
_W_I_N_T_E_R_M is unset, winterm provides _x_w_s_h as a default. This script is
used by _f_m(_1) and _t_o_o_l_c_h_e_s_t(_1_X) when launching applications with
teletype-style user interfaces.
----nnnnaaaammmmeeee or ----nnnn name-string
sets the winterm's application name, under which resources
are to be obtained. The name string should not contain ``.''
or ``*'' characters.
----ttttiiiittttlllleeee or ----tttt or ----TTTT title-string
sets the title of the winterm window to the provided title
string.
----pppp xposition,yposition
positions the corner of the winterm window to
_x_p_o_s_i_t_i_o_n,_y_p_o_s_i_t_i_o_n, measured from the inside of any window
borders which may be provided by the window manager.
----ssss cols,lines
sets the size of the winterm so the contained terminal
emulator supports the requested number of text columns _c_o_l_s
and the number of text lines _l_i_n_e_s.
----ffffoooonnnntttt or ----ffff or ----ffffnnnn fontname
sets the font used within the winterm to _f_o_n_t_n_a_m_e.
----ffffgggg color sets the foreground (text) color used by the winterm to
_c_o_l_o_r.
----bbbbgggg color sets the background (page) color used by the winterm to
_c_o_l_o_r.

----iiiiccccoooonnnniiiicccc starts the winterm up in its iconic (minimized) form.
----hhhhoooolllldddd or ----HHHH holds the winterm open after application exits, allowing the
user to read the output and close the winterm at their own
pace. Note: xterm does not currently support this
capability.
----ccccoooonnnnssssoooolllleeee or ----CCCC
starts the winterm up as a system console and sets the
environment variable CONSOLE. This steals the role of the
system console from any predecessor, and assigns it to the
new winterm. The only difference between the system console
and any other terminal emulator is that messages from the
kernel and from the logging of certain system activity
(controlled by the file /etc/syslog.conf) are printed on the
console. The variable _C_O_N_S_O_L_E is set in the environment to
allow .profile and .login files to provide different handling
for this terminal emulator such as special handling of the
window title.
----ddddiiiissssppppllllaaaayyyy display-string
applies an X compatible display specification, setting the X
server to be contacted; see X(1).
----ggggeeeeoooommmmeeeettttrrrryyyy geometry-string
applies an X compatible geometry specification, setting the
position and/or size of the winterm window. See X(1).
----xxxxrrrrmmmm resource-string
applies an X compatible resource specification, to set
resources value understood by the termulator invoked within
the winterm window. See X(1).
----cccc cmd [args]
feeds the rest of the line as the command to be executed in
the winterm. This option must be the last flag set from the
winterm command line.
NNNNOOOOTTTTEEEESSSS
The default _W_I_N_T_E_R_M is: WINTERM='xwsh -name winterm'.
The ----hhhhoooolllldddd (----HHHH) option is not supported by _x_t_e_r_m.
