- The _\bx_\bs_\bc_\br_\be_\be_\bn_\bs_\ba_\bv_\be_\br_\b-_\bc_\bo_\bm_\bm_\ba_\bn_\bd program controls a running
- _\bx_\bs_\bc_\br_\be_\be_\bn_\bs_\ba_\bv_\be_\br process by sending it client-messages.
-
-O\bOP\bPT\bTI\bIO\bON\bNS\bS
- _\bx_\bs_\bc_\br_\be_\be_\bn_\bs_\ba_\bv_\be_\br_\b-_\bc_\bo_\bm_\bm_\ba_\bn_\bd accepts the following options:
-
- -\b-h\bhe\bel\blp\bp Prints a brief summary of command-line options.
-
- -\b-d\bde\bem\bmo\bo Cause the screensaver to enter its interactive
- demo mode, in which one can experiment with the
- various graphics hacks available. See x\bxs\bsc\bcr\bre\bee\ben\bn-\b-
- s\bsa\bav\bve\ber\br(1) for details.
-
- -\b-a\bac\bct\bti\biv\bva\bat\bte\be
- Tell the screensaver to turn on immediately (that
- is, pretend that the user been idle for long
- enough.) It will turn off as soon as there is any
- user activity, as usual.
-
- It is useful to run this from a menu; you may wish
- to run it as
-
- sleep 5 ; xscreensaver-command -activate
-
- to be sure that you have time to remove your hand
- from the mouse before the screensaver comes on.
-
- -\b-d\bde\bea\bac\bct\bti\biv\bva\bat\bte\be
- Tell the screensaver to turn off, as if there had
- been user activity. If locking is enabled, then
- the screensaver will prompt for a password as
- usual.
-
- -\b-l\blo\boc\bck\bk Like _\b-_\ba_\bc_\bt_\bi_\bv_\ba_\bt_\be, but a password will be required
- before the screensaver turns off, even if the
- screensaver's _\bl_\bo_\bc_\bk resource is false. The display
- will be locked immediately even if the screen-
- saver's _\bl_\bo_\bc_\bk_\bT_\bi_\bm_\be_\bo_\bu_\bt resource is non-zero.
-
- -\b-c\bcy\byc\bcl\ble\be Tell the screensaver to change which graphics hack
- it is running, just as if the ``cycle'' timer had
- expired. A new hack will be chosen randomly.
-
- -\b-n\bne\bex\bxt\bt This is like either _\b-_\ba_\bc_\bt_\bi_\bv_\ba_\bt_\be or _\b-_\bc_\by_\bc_\bl_\be, depending

-
- on which is more appropriate, except that the
- screenhack that will be run is the next one in the
- list of programs, instead of a randomly-chosen
- one. Repeatedly executing this will cycle through
- each hack in turn (though using the _\b-_\bd_\be_\bm_\bo option
- is probably an easier way to accomplish that.)
-
- -\b-p\bpr\bre\bev\bv This is like _\b-_\bn_\be_\bx_\bt, but cycles in the other direc-
- tion.
-
- -\b-e\bex\bxi\bit\bt Causes the screensaver process to exit gracefully.
- This is a safer and easier way to kill the screen-
- saver than by using _\bk_\bi_\bl_\bl.
-
- W\bWa\bar\brn\bni\bin\bng\bg:\b: never use _\bk_\bi_\bl_\bl _\b-_\b9 with _\bx_\bs_\bc_\br_\be_\be_\bn_\bs_\ba_\bv_\be_\br while
- the screensaver is active. If you are using a
- virtual root window manager, that can leave things
- in an inconsistent state, and you may need to
- restart your window manager to repair the damage.
-
- -\b-r\bre\bes\bst\bta\bar\brt\bt
- Causes the screensaver process to exit and then
- restart with the same command line arguments.
- This is a good way of causing the screensaver to
- re-read the resource database.
-
- If the screensaver is run from _\bx_\bd_\bm_\b(_\b1_\b) (that is, it
- is already running before you log in) then you may
- want to issue the ``restart'' command from one of
- your startup scripts, so that the screensaver gets
- your resource settings instead of the default
- ones.
-
- -\b-v\bve\ber\brs\bsi\bio\bon\bn
- Print (on stdout) the version number of the
- xscreensaver program that is running on $DISPLAY.
- (To see the version number of _\bx_\bs_\bc_\br_\be_\be_\bn_\bs_\ba_\bv_\be_\br_\b-_\bc_\bo_\bm_\bm_\ba_\bn_\bd
- itself, use the _\b-_\bh_\be_\bl_\bp option.)
-
- -\b-t\bti\bim\bme\be This option prints on stdout the time at which the
- screensaver last activated (blanked the screen) or
- deactivated (restored the screen.) Note that the
- activation-time is not the last time at which the
- user was active, but is some time later (it is the
- time at which either: xscreensaver decided that
- the user has been idle long enough; or, the user
- explicitly activated the screensaver or locker.)
-
-E\bEN\bNV\bVI\bIR\bRO\bON\bNM\bME\bEN\bNT\bT
- D\bDI\bIS\bSP\bPL\bLA\bAY\bY to get the host and display number of the screen
- whose saver is to be manipulated.
-
- P\bPA\bAT\bTH\bH to find the executable to restart (for the
- _\b-_\br_\be_\bs_\bt_\ba_\br_\bt command). Note that this variable is

- Some diagnostics are reported on the stderr of the
- _\bx_\bs_\bc_\br_\be_\be_\bn_\bs_\ba_\bv_\be_\br process, not this process, so the caller of
- _\bx_\bs_\bc_\br_\be_\be_\bn_\bs_\ba_\bv_\be_\br_\b-_\bc_\bo_\bm_\bm_\ba_\bn_\bd may not see the error messages.
