- Synopsis:
- window scratch <on|off>
-
- Description:
- When a window is defined as being a scratch window, it is accessed very
- differently. Scratch windows do not scroll, and allow direct line-by-line
- accessing. To allow this, a new flag has been added to xecho: -line.
-
- Examples:
- To create a scratch window, and add some text to it:
- /window new scratch on fixed on discon
- /* creates a non-movable, non-serverable scratch window */
- /xecho -window <refnum> -line 1 This is in the scratch window.
-
- See Also:
- xecho(5)
-
- Other Notes:
- Scratch windows don't deal with being resized very gracefully. It is
- suggested that you do /WINDOW NEW SCRATCH ON FIXED ON so that it can't be
- resized on you. Scratch windows are best not bound to a server, always use
- window(4) discon. Scratch windows have no scrollback, due to their
- direct accessing.
