xtermcontrol enables dynamic control of XFree86 xterm properties. xtermcontrol project makes it easy to change colors, titles, fonts, and the geometry of a running xterm, as well as to report the current settings of the properties.

Window manipulations such as (de)iconify, raise and lower, maximize and restore, and reset are also supported. It also lets advanced users issue any xterm control sequence.

Options:

--fg=COLOR
Set foreground color to COLOR.
--bg=COLOR
Set background color to COLOR.
--colorN=COLOR
Set N'th [0-15] color to COLOR.
--highlight=COLOR
Set highlight color to COLOR.
--cursor=COLOR
Set cursor color to COLOR.
--mouse-fg=COLOR
Set mouse pointer foreground color to COLOR.
--mouse-fg=COLOR
Set mouse pointer background color to COLOR.
--font=FONT
Set font name to FONT. Alternatively it is possible to specify a fontmenu index as '#[0-6]' or navigate the fontmenu by relative sizes as '#+N' or '#-N', where N is an optional integer.
--title=STRING
Set window title. Note that mechanisms like the Bash PROMPT_COMMAND may overwrite the title. Se also How to change the title of an xterm.
--geometry=WIDTHxHEIGHT+XOFF+YOFF
Set size and/or position. Through its control sequences the xterm only recognize positive XOFF and YOFF offsets, which are pixels relative to the upper left hand corner of the display. xtermcontrol is therefore unable to handle negative offsets as described in the X Geometry Specifications and therefore truncates negative values to zero.
--get-fg
Report foreground color.
--get-bg
Report background color.
--get-colorN
Report N'th [0-15] color.
--get-highlight
Report highlight color.
--get-cursor
Report cursor color.
--get-mouse-fg
Report mouse pointer foreground color.
--get-mouse-bg
Report mouse pointer background color.
--get-font
Report font.
--get-title
Report window title.
--get-geometry
Report size and position. The size of the text area is reported in characters and the position is reported in pixels relative to the upper left hand corner of the display.
--maximize
Maximize window.
--restore
Restore maximized window.
--iconify
Iconify window.
--de-iconify
De-iconify window.
--raise
Raise window.
--lower
Lower window.
--reset
Full reset.
--raw=CTLSEQS
Issue the raw control sequences CTLSEQS.
--file=FILE
Force xtermcontrol to read configurations from FILE instead of the standard personal initialization file ~/.xtermcontrol.
--force, -f
Skip TERM environment variable check.
--verbose, -v
Print verbose reports.
--help, -h
Print help and exit.
--version
Print the version number and exit.

What's New in This Release:
  • src/configuration.c: Fix regexp, so the '#rrggbb' way to specify a color works in configuration file. Reported by Olle Mulmo.
  • doc/xtermcontrol.roff: add BUGS section describing how install needs to setuid root on some broken systems.
