NAME
     propwatch - a tool to monitor X11 properties

SYNOPSIS
     propwatch [ options ] property-name ...

DESCRIPTION
     propwatch	is  a  tool to monitor window properties of root and application
     windows.  Nice for debugging property-based IPC of X11 programs.

OPTIONS
     propwatch uses the Athena Widgets and accepts  the  usual	toolkit  options
     like -display and -geometry.

     Additional options are:

     -watch display
	    Display to monitor the windows on.	By default the display specified
	    in	the DISPLAY environment variable or via -display is used, but it
	    is possible to watch another display instead.

     -verbose
	    be verbose.

     -proplog
	    Log property changes to stdout.

     -kbdlog
	    Log keystrokes to stdout.

     All remaining command line arguments are assumed to be property names which
     should be monitored.  If no property names are specified, a  build  in  de-
     fault (WM_COMMAND) will be used.

ENVIRONMENT
     DISPLAY
	    specifies the display to use for the propwatch window.
