DM COMMANDS

7.0;wg (window_grow) *DM*, revision 7.0, 83/08/18
WG (WINDOW_GROW) *DM* -- Grow or shrink a window.
usage: [region]wg


FORMAT

  [region]WG


  The WG command changes the size of a window by moving one edge or
  corner across the screen while leaving the other edges and/or
  corners where they are.  To grow or shrink a window, first mark
  the edge or corner you want to move by positioning the cursor at
  that edge or corner and issuing the DR command or pressing <MARK>.
  Then move the cursor to the edge or corner's new location and issue
  the WG command.  (By default, the <GROW> key invokes the WG command
  on keyboard 2, while CTRL/G provides the same function on keyboard 1.)
  The marked edge or corner moves to the new cursor position, and the
  window shrinks or grows accordingly.  If you want to move only an edge,
  move the cursor only in the direction perpendicular to that edge.
  Moving the cursor in two dimensions causes a corner to move.


ARGUMENTS

  region
  (optional)       Specify old and new locations of edge or corner.
                   May be specified in a variety of formats: see
                   HELP WINDOW.  This argument is REQUIRED if you
                   do not use the cursor placement and <MARK>
                   operation described above.
                   Default if omitted: use marked region
