- The _t_e_l_l_w_m utility invokes window functions in a cooperating resident
- window manager program.
-
- Cooperating window managers post the _SGI_TELL_WM property on the root
- window, containing a list of command strings they support externally. If
- the command argument given to tellwm matches this published protocol,
- tellwm forwards the command to the window manager for execution. tellwm
- exits with a non-zero status if the current window manager does not
- provide the cooperating property, or if it does not support the requested
- command. The following options are provided:
-
- ----tttt or
-
- ----tttteeeesssstttt Test to determine whether the command can be sent, but don't send
- it. The exit status of tellwm may be checked to see if the
- current window manager and its protocol support the command
- request given, but the requested command is not actually sent.
-
- ----vvvv or
-
- ----vvvveeeerrrrbbbboooosssseeee
- Report diagnostics if tellwm fails to successfully communicate
- with the current window manager.
-
- For more information about the entire IRIX Interactive
- Desktop environment, see the IID(1) man page.

- The _4_D_w_m window manager is currently the only window manager which
- supports the _SGI_TELL_WM protocol property. 4Dwm publishes the
- following protocol of supported external commands: auto_place,
- auto_save, beep, circle_down, circle_up, end_session, explicit_save,
- interactive_place, minimize_all, opaque, outline, pack_icons, quit,
- refresh, restart, restore_all, and save_configuration.
-
- For example, the shell command line
-
- tttteeeellllllllwwwwmmmm rrrreeeessssttttaaaarrrrtttt
-
- causes 4Dwm to perform the same action as when the Restart item
- (_f._r_e_s_t_a_r_t) is invoked from the 4Dwm menu. Refer to the 4Dwm
- documentation for definitions of these commands.
