As +a result, the appearance of the Motif decorations around the toplevel +window will be changed. +Possible options are: B<-border>, B<-menu>, B<-maximize>, +B<-minimize>, B<-resizeh> and B<-title>. The value must be a +Boolean value. The values returned by this command are undefined when +the window is not managed by mwm. + +=item I<$toplevel>-E<gt>B<mwmIsmwmrunning> + +This returns value is true if mwm is running on the screen where the specified +window is located, false otherwise. + +=item I<$toplevel>-E<gt>B<mwmProtocol> + +When no additional options are given, this method returns all +protocols associated with this toplevel window. + +=item I<$toplevel>-E<gt>B<mwmProtocol>(B<activate> =E<gt> I<protocol_name>) + +Activate the mwm protocol message in mwm's menu. + +=item I<$toplevel>-E<gt>B<MwmProtocol>(B<add> =E<gt> I<protocol_name>, I<menu_message>) + +Add a new mwm protocol message for this toplevel window. The +message is identified by the string name specified in +I<protocol_name>. A menu item will be added into mwm's menu as +specified by I<menu_message>. Once a new mwm protocol message is +added to a toplevel, it can be caught by the TK B<protocol> +method. Here is an example: + +S< >I<$toplevel>-E<gt>B<mwmProtocol>(B<'add'> =E<gt> 'MY_PRINT_HELLO', '"Print Hello" _H CtrlE<lt>KeyE<gt>H'); + +S< >I<$toplevel>-E<gt>B<protocol>(B<'MY_PRINT_HELLO'> =E<gt> sub {print "Hello"}); + +=item I<$toplevel>-E<gt>B<mwmProtocol>(B<'deactivate'> =E<gt> I<protocol_name>) + +Deactivate the mwm protocol message in mwm's menu. + +=item I<$toplevel>-E<gt>B<mwmProtocol>(B<'delete'> =E<gt> I<protocol_name>) + +Delete the mwm protocol message from mwm's menu. Please note that the +window manager protocol handler associated with this protocol (by the +B<protocol> method) is not deleted automatically. You have to +delete the protocol handle explicitly. E.g.: + +S< >I<$mw>-E<gt>B<mwmProtocol>(B<'delete'> =E<gt> 'MY_PRINT_HELLO'); + +S< >I<$mw>-E<gt>B<protocol>(B<'MY_PRINT_HELLO'> =E<gt> ''); + +=back + +=head1 BUGS + +This is a Tix extension which perl/Tk has adopted. It has not been +tested as perl/Tk's author has not got round to installing a Motif Window +Manager. + +On some versions of mwm, the B<-border> will not disappear unless +B<-resizeh> is turned off. Also, the B<-title> will not disappear +unless all of B<-title>, B<-menu>, B<-maximize> and +B<-minimize> are turned off. + +=head1 SEE ALSO + +L<Tk::Wm|Tk::Wm> +L<Tk::tixWm|Tk::tixWm> +L<Tk::Toplevel|Tk::Toplevel> + +=head1 KEYWORDS + +window manager, mwm, TIX + +=head1 AUTHOR + +Ioi Kim Lam - ioi@graphics.cis.upenn.edu + +=cut + |
