FLUXBOX-REMOTE(1)		 Fluxbox Manual 	       FLUXBOX-REMOTE(1)

NAME
     fluxbox-remote - command line access to key commands for fluxbox(1)

SYNOPSIS
     fluxbox-remote command

DESCRIPTION
     fluxbox-remote(1) is designed to allow scripts to execute most key commands
     from fluxbox(1). fluxbox-remote(1) will only work with fluxbox(1): its com-
     munications  with	fluxbox(1) are not standardized in any way. It is recom-
     mended that a standards-based tool such as wmctrl(1) be used whenever  pos-
     sible, in order for scripts to work with other window managers.

CAVEATS
     fluxbox-remote(1)	uses  the  X11	protocol to communicate with fluxbox(1).
     Therefore, it is possible for any user with access to the	X(7)  server  to
     use fluxbox-remote(1). For this reason, several key commands have been dis-
     abled.  Users  should  be	aware of the security implications when enabling
     fluxbox-remote(1), especially when using a forwarded X(7) connection.

RESOURCES
     session.screen0.allowRemoteActions: <boolean>
	 This resource in ~/.fluxbox/init must be set to  `true'  in  order  for
	 fluxbox-remote(1) to function. Please read the CAVEATS first.

ENVIRONMENT
     In  order	to communicate with fluxbox(1), the DISPLAY environment variable
     must be set properly. Usually, the value should be `:0.0'.
