Only a few of them are actually useful though (most of them dealing with GTK+ debugging facilities). <hr> <h2>Available GTK+ options (1):</h2> <pre><ul> <li> <a href="#DISPLAY">--display</a> <display> <li> <a href="#CLASS">--name</a> <name> <li> <a href="#CLASS">--class</a> <class> <li> <a href="#SYNC">--sync</a> <li> <a href="#XSHM">--no-xshm</a> <li> <a href="#FATAL">--g-fatal-warnings</a> <li> <a href="#MODULE">--gtk-module</a> <module> <li> <a href="#DEBUG">--gtk-debug</a> <flags> <li> <a href="#DEBUG">--gtk-no-debug</a> <flags> <li> <a href="#DEBUG">--gdk-debug</a> <flags> <li> <a href="#DEBUG">--gdk-no-debug</a> <flags> </ul> </pre> <p align="justify">(1) there may be more or less options available, depending on the GTK+ version, please refer to the GTK+ documentation for options actually available on your system. <hr> <ul> <p><li><a name="DISPLAY"><b>--display</b></a> <display> <p align="justify">This option allows to specify a X <display> on which the Xdialog window is to be open. This is useful when invoking Xdialog from a script executed by a daemon (e.g.: <b>atd</b> or <b>crond</b>) which does not set the <b>$DISPLAY</b> variable needed by GTK+. <p><li><a name="CLASS"><b>--name</b></a> <name> <li><b>--class</b> <class> <p align="justify">These options allow to set respectively the <name> and the <class> of a GTK+ program, for use by the window manager. Xdialog got its own <a href="common.html#WMCLASS">--wmclass</a> option that sets both its name and class to the same value. You may still want to use these two GTK+ options if you need to set different name and class values. <p><li><a name="SYNC"><b>--sync</b></a> <p align="justify">Tells GTK+ (actually the GDK part of GTK+) to make X calls synchronous. This will give very smooth display updates, but very slow as well... No practical use. <p><li><a name="XSHM"><b>--no-xshm</b></a> <p align="justify">Prevents GTK+ (actually the GDK part of GTK+) to use the X shared memory extension. In case your X server XSHM is broken (in this case, upgrade !)... No practical use. <p><li><a name="FATAL"><b>--g-fatal-warnings</b></a> <p align="justify">Make all GTK+ warnings fatal. Xdialog does not make such warnings to be issued (if it does, it is a bug, please report it !). But you may encounter GTK+ warnings while using Xdialog if your own GTK+ configuration is wrong (e.g. if you are using a GTK+ theme needing for a specific gtk-engine which is actually missing from your system); in this case you will also encounter the same warnings using any other GTK+ application. Using this option will make Xdialog to be killed when a warning is issued rather than reporting this warning on Xdialog stderr (and therefore possibly polluting the strings returned by Xdialog, when the <a href="common.html#OUTPUT">--stderr</a> option is in force). For debugging purpose, no practical use. <p><li><a name="MODULE"><b>--gtk-module</b></a> <module> <p align="justify">For additional module loading. Not needed by Xdialog. <p><li><a name="DEBUG"><b>--gtk-debug</b></a> <flags> <li><b>--gtk-no-debug</b> <flags> <li><b>--gdk-debug</b> <flags> <li><b>--gdk-no-debug</b> <flags> <p align="justify">Set/unset GTK/GDK debugging <flags>. For debugging purpose only, no practical use. </ul> <hr> <table border=0 width="100%"><tr> <td align="left"><a href="special.html">previous</a><a name="BOTTOM"> </a> <a href="compatibility.html">next</a> <a href="index.html">contents</a></td> <td align="right"><a href="#TOP">top</a></td> </tr></table> <br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br> </body> </html>
