DM COMMANDS

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


FORMAT

  [region]WG


  NOTE: There  is  a  companion  grow command WGE that provides visible feedback
        during a grow operation.  Type HELP WGE for information on that command.

  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
  string  or  pressing <MARK>.  Then move the cursor to the edge or corner's new
  location and issue the WG command.  (By default, CTRL/G invokes the WG command
  on  low-profile  keyboards.   This function is not available by default on 880
  keyboards.)  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
