XMAG(1)			    General Commands Manual		       XMAG(1)

NAME
       xmag - magnify parts of the screen

SYNOPSIS
       xmag [ -mag magfactor ] [ -source geom ]	[ -toolkitoption ... ]

DESCRIPTION
       The  xmag program allows	you to magnify portions	of an X	screen.	 If no
       explicit	region is specified, a square with the pointer	in  the	 upper
       left  corner is displayed indicating the	area to	be enlarged.  The area
       can be dragged out to the desired size by pressing Button  2.   Once  a
       region has been selected, a window is popped up showing a blown up ver-
       sion  of	 the  region in	which each pixel in the	source image is	repre-
       sented by a small square	of the same color.  Pressing  Button1  in  the
       enlargement  window shows the position and RGB value of the pixel under
       the pointer until the button is released.  Typing ``Q''	or  ``^C''  in
       the  enlargement	 window	exits the program.  The	application has	5 but-
       tons across its top.  Close deletes this	particular  magnification  in-
       stance.	Replace	brings up the rubber band selector again to select an-
       other region for	this magnification instance.  New brings up the	rubber
       band  selector to create	a new magnification instance.  Select puts the
       magnification image into	the primary selection.	Paste copies the  pri-
       mary  selection	buffer into xmag.  Note	that you can cut and paste be-
       tween xmag and the bitmap program.  Resizing xmag resizes the  magnifi-
       cation  area.  xmag preserves the colormap, visual, and window depth of
       the source.

WIDGETS
       xmag uses the X Toolkit and the Athena Widget Set.  The magnified image
       is displayed in the Scale widget.  For more information,	see the	Athena
       Widget Set documentation.  Below	is the widget structure	 of  the  xmag
       application.   Indentation indicates hierarchical  structure.  The wid-
       get class name is given first, followed by the widget instance name.
