The following options are accepted in the configuration file: .Pp .Bl -tag -width Ds -compact .It Ic autogroup Ar group Dq windowclass .It Ic autogroup Ar group Dq windowclass,windowname Control automatic window grouping, based on the class and/or name properties, where .Ar group is a number between 0 and 9. If the group number is 0, then the window will not be grouped; this to allow for .Dq sticky windows in sticky group mode. .Pp The class and name of a window may be obtained using .Xr xprop 1 . .Pp .It Ic bind Ar keys Ar command Cause the creation of a keybinding, or replacement of a default keybinding. The modifier keys come first, followed by a .Sq - . .Pp The following modifiers are recognised: .Pp .Bl -tag -width Ds -offset indent -compact .It C The Control key. .It M The Meta key. .It S The Shift key. .It 4 The Mod4 key (normally the windows key). .El .Pp The .Sq - should be followed by either a keysym name, taken from .Pa /usr/X11R6/include/X11/keysymdef.h , or a numerical keycode value enclosed in .Dq [] . The .Ar command may either be one from the .Sx BIND COMMAND LIST (see below) or the command line that is to be executed. .Pp A special .Ar command keyword .Dq unmap can be used to remove the named keybinding. This can be used to remove a binding which conflicts with an application. .Pp .It Ic command Ar name Ar path Every .Ar name entry is shown in the application menu. When selected, the defined .Ar path is executed with .Xr execve 2 . .Pp The .Ar name entries .Nm term and .Nm lock have a special meaning. They point to the terminal and screen locking programs specified by keybindings. The defaults are .Xr xterm 1 and .Xr xlock 1 , respectively. .Pp .It Ic fontname Ar font Change the default .Ar font for .Xr Xft 3 . .Pp .It Ic gap Ar top bottom left right Define a .Dq gap in pixels at the edge of the screen, so that when a window is maximized it will not overlap this area. This .Dq gap can be used for applications such as .Xr xclock 1 , where the user may wish to remain visible. .Pp .It Ic ignore Ar windowname Ignore drawing borders around a window with the name .Ar windowname . .Pp .It Ic mousebind Ar buttons Ar command Cause the creation of a mouse binding, or replacement of a default mouse binding. The modifier keys come first, followed by a .Sq - . .Pb The following modifiers are recognised: .Pp .Bl -tag -width Ds -offset indent -compact .It C The Control key. .It M The Meta key. .El .Pp The .Sq - should be followed by number: .Pb .Bl -tag -width Ds -offset indent -compact .Pp .It 1 Left mouse button. .It 2 Right mouse button. .It 3 Middle mouse button. .El .Pp The .Ar command may be taken from the .Sx MOUSEBIND COMMAND LIST (see below). .Pp .It Ic sticky Ic yes Ns \&| Ns Ic no Toggle sticky group mode. The default behavior for new windows is to not assign any group. By enabling sticky group mode, .Xr cwm 1 will assign new windows to the currently selected group. .El .Sh EXAMPLE CONFIGURATION .Bd -literal # Set default Xft(3) font fontname "sans-serif:pixelsize=14:bold" # Turn on sticky-group mode sticky yes # Any entry here is shown in the application menu command firefox firefox command xmms xmms command top "xterm -e top" # Autogroup definitions autogroup 3 "aterm,XTerm" autogroup 3 "xterm,XTerm" # Ignore programs by that name by not drawing borders around them. ignore XMMS ignore xwi ignore xapm ignore xclock # Keybindings bind CM-r label bind CS-Return "xterm -e top" bind 4-o unmap # Mousebindings mousebind M-2 window_lower mousebind M-3 window_resize .Ed .Sh BIND COMMAND LIST .Bl -tag -width 18n -compact .It quit quit .Xr cwm 1 .It terminal spawn a new terminal .It lock lock the screen .It search launch window search menu .It menusearch launch application search menu .It exec launch .Dq exec program menu .It exec_wm launch .Dq exec WindowManager menu .It ssh launch .Dq ssh menu .It group[n] select group n, where n is 1-9 .It nogroup select all groups .It grouptoggle toggle group membership of a window .It cyclegroup forward cycle through groups .It rcyclegroup reverse cycle through groups .It cycle forward cycle through windows .It rcycle reverse cycle through windows .It delete delete a window .It hide hide a window .It lower lower a window .It raise raise a window .It label label a window .It maximize maximize a window full-screen .It vmaximize maximize a window vertically .It moveup move window 1 pixel up .It movedown move window 1 pixel down .It moveright move window 1 pixel right .It moveleft move window 1 pixel left .It bigmoveup move window 10 pixels up .It bigmovedown move window 10 pixels down .It bigmoveright move window 10 pixels right .It bigmoveleft move window 10 pixels left .It resizeup resize window 1 pixel up .It resizedown resize window 1 pixel down .It resizeright resize window 1 pixel right .It resizeleft resize window 1 pixel left .It bigresizeup resize window 10 pixels up .It bigresizedown resize window 10 pixels down .It bigresizeright resize window 10 pixels right .It bigresizeleft resize window 10 pixels left .It ptrmoveup move pointer 1 pixel up .It ptrmovedown move pointer 1 pixel down .It ptrmoveright move pointer 1 pixel right .It ptrmoveleft move pointer 1 pixel left .It bigptrmoveup move pointer 10 pixels up .It bigptrmovedown move pointer 10 pixels down .It bigptrmoveright move pointer 10 pixels right .It bigptrmoveleft move pointer 10 pixels left .El .Sh MOUSEBIND COMMAND LIST .Bl -tag -width 18n -compact .It window_move move a window .It window_resize resize a window .It window_lower lower a window .It window_grouptoggle toggle group membership of a window .It menu_group launch group list .It menu_unhide launch group list .It menu_cmd launch command list .El .Sh FILES .Bl -tag -width "~/.cwmrcXXX" -compact .It Pa ~/.cwmrc default .Xr cwm 1 configuration file .El .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr cwm 1 .Sh HISTORY The .Nm file format first appeared in .Ox 4.4 .
