## NAME

sawfish-ui — The Sawfish Configurator.

## SYNOPSIS

**sawfish-ui** \[ **--group=***GROUP-NAME \]  \[* **--flatten** *\]  \[* **--single-level** *\]  \[* **--socket-id=***WINDOW-ID \]*

## DESCRIPTION

*This program can be used to invoke the GUI manually; if GNOME is being*  *used, then the GNOME Control Center can also be used to customize*  *certain classes.*

- **--group** **GROUP-NAME**

  *Display only GROUP-NAME*

-

  *GROUP-NAME* should be one of these  names Sawfish, Appearance, Bindings, Focus, Matched Windows,  Minimizing/Maximizing, Miscellaneous, Move/Resize, Placement, Sounds, Workspaces

- **--flatten**

  display sub-groups inline instead of using a tree widget  (good for control center). In normal \`tree' item, don't put frame  the widgets
