SYNOPSIS
fvwm-menu-xlock [ --help|-h|-? ] [ --version|-V ] [ --name|-n name ] [
--title|-t title ] [ --item format ] [ --icon-title icon ] [
--icon-item icon ] [ --special-first|-s ] [ -- xlock params ]
DESCRIPTION
A simple perl script which parses xlock’s output to build an fvwm menu
definition of all xlock’s modes.
OPTIONS
--help
show the help and exit
--version
show the version and exit
--name name
define menu name in the following argument. Default is "XLockMenu"
--title title
define menu title in the following argument. Default is "XLock
Modes".
--item format
define menu item format in the following argument, default is
’%n\t(%d)’. TAB can be specified as ’\t’, but in .fvwm2rc you
should specify a double backslash or a real TAB.
Format specifiers:
%n - mode name
%d - mode description
%D - mode description without "Shows " prefix if any
These specifiers can receive an optional integer size, positive for
right adjusted string or negative for left adjusted, example: %8x;
and optional *num or *-num, which means to leave only the first or
last (if minus) num of chars, the num must be greater than 3, since
the striped part is replaced with "...", example: %*30x. Both can
be combined: %-10*-20x, this instructs to get only the 20 last
characters, but if the length is less then 10 - to fill with up to
10 spaces on the right.
--icon-title icon
--icon-item icon
define menu icon for title and regular item accordingly. Default is
no menu icons (equivalent to an empty icon argument).
--wm-icons
define icon names suitable for use with wm-icons package. Currently
this is equivalent to: --icon-title ’’ --icon-item menu/lock.xpm.
--special-first
instructs to include special modes (usually black, bomb and random)
first.
Option parameters can be specified either using ’=’ or in the next
argument. Short options are ok if not ambiguous: -h, -t; but be careful
with short options, what is now unambiguous, can became ambiguous in
the next versions.
Additional arguments (after --) will be passed to xlock.
Please see the xlock(1) man page for the xlock options.
