WMDOCKER(1)
π WMDOCKER β the manual, but make it make sense
okay bestie, welcome to the wmdocker(1) page from the General Commands Manual β¨ it's short, it's sweet, it's a whole vibe, and it's literally the entire documentation for wmdocker. let's go π«Ά
β¨ NAME β¨
wmdocker β system tray for KDE3/GNOME2 docklet applications πΈ
π SYNOPSIS π
wmdocker [options]
π DESCRIPTION π
so this manual page documents the wmdocker command briefly, no cap β that's literally what it says. and plot twist: this page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page π so this is all we got, and we're grateful fr fr.
wmdocker is a docking application (a WindowMaker dock app) that acts as a system tray for KDE3 and GNOME2. what's the point? it can replace the panel in either environment, so you get a system tray without having to run the KDE/GNOME panel. lowkey iconic, honestly π
and for the lore girlies: Docker was written and designed to work with Openbox 2, but it should work fine in any window manager that supports WindowMaker dock apps. it's giving "versatile queen" π
β OPTIONS β
-h-helpβ shows a summary of options. yep, that's the spelling, we don't ask questions, we just copy it exactly π-display DISPLAYβ the X display to connect to π¦-border Nβ the width of the border to put around the system tray icons. defaults to1β¨-verticalβ line up the icons vertically. defaults to horizontally, if you were wondering π-wmakerβ WindowMaker mode π§ this makeswmdockera fixed size (64x64) so it appears nicely in in WindowMaker (she said "in" twice, we love her). > Note: in this mode, you have a fixed number of icons thatwmdockercan hold. so plan accordingly bestie π-iconsize SIZEβ the size (width and height and height) to display icons as in the system tray. defaults to24π (and yes, "height" got typed twice. no thoughts, head empty, preserving the source π)-color COLORβ the background color to use for the tray. defaults to whatever color the window manager specifies π
