Can any one tell me what makes xman ignore the standard Xt option '-iconic'? And what can I do about it? I would really like it to start up in iconic mode. -- --------------- uunet!tdatirv!sarima (Stanley Friesen)

In the .twmrc file, you need to add a section that looks like the following: StartIconified { xman } I'm not sure how to do it for any of the others, but I start up several things like that and it works fine... Hope this helps....

Add this line to your .Xdefaults if you'd rather have xman always come up iconified: Xman*Iconic: true -- Brian Holtz (holtz@netcord.Eng.Sun.COM)
