# wmdocker(1)

System tray for KDE3/GNOME2 docklet applications

## NAME

wmdocker - System tray for KDE3/GNOME2 docklet applications

## SYNOPSIS

**wmdocker** \[*options*\]

## DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the **wmdocker** command. This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

**wmdocker** is a docking application (WindowMaker dock app) which acts as a system tray for KDE3 and GNOME2. It can be used to replace the panel in either environment, allowing you to have a system tray without running the KDE/GNOME panel.

Docker was written and designed to work with Openbox 2, but it should work fine in any window manager that supports WindowMaker dock apps.

## OPTIONS

- **-h-help**

  Show summary of options.

- **-display DISPLAY**

  The X display to connect to.

- **-border N**

  The width of the border to put around the system tray icons. Defaults to 1.

- **-vertical**

  Line up the icons vertically. Defaults to horizontally.

- **-wmaker**

  WindowMaker mode. This makes wmdocker a fixed size (64x64) to appear nicely in in WindowMaker.  Note: In this mode, you have a fixed number of icons that wmdocker can hold.

- **-iconsize SIZE**

  The size (width and height and height) to display icons as in the system tray. Defaults to 24.

- **-color COLOR**

  The background color to use for the tray. Defaults to whatever color the window manager specifies.
