REBORDER(1)  —  UNIX Programmer’s Manual

NAME

reborder - put borders on X windows

SYNOPSIS

reborder [-size] [-display display]

DESCRIPTION

reborder Sets the border of all windows on the specified X server to the given value.  The default border width is 2 (pixels) or the value of the “borderWidth” X default.  This can be overridden on the command line. 

The program is useful if a window manager leaves windows with unreasonable window borders.  It should not normally be used while a window manager is running − it may result in strange interactions with the window manager. 

If no display is specified,  the value of the DISPLAY environment variable is used. 

OPTIONS

-size The width of the border in pixels. 

-display display
The X server/display to use.

ENVIRONMENT

DISPLAY To get default host and display number.
