SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

propwatch is a tool to monitor window properties of root and application windows. Nice for debugging property-based IPC of X11 programs.

OPTIONS

propwatch uses the Athena Widgets and accepts the usual toolkit options like -display and -geometry.

Additional options are:

-watch display
Display to monitor the windows on. By default the display specified in the DISPLAY environment variable or via -display is used, but it is possible to watch another display instead.
-verbose
be verbose.
-proplog

All remaining command line arguments are assumed to be property names which should be monitored. If no property names are specified, a build in default (WM_COMMAND) will be used.
