NAME

vueicon - The HP VUE Icon Editor

SYNOPSIS

vueicon [options]

DESCRIPTION

The Vueicon program is an icon editor for use within the X Window System environment.  The Icon Editor allows you to create new icons, modify existing icons, or create an icon from any visible image on the display.  It supports both XPM and XBM format icons, including hotspot.  The Icon Editor also supports HP VUE drag and drop, allowing the user to drag file icons from the HP VUE file manager onto the Icon Editor window for editing. 

OPTIONS

The following options are available from the command line:

-f file
This options takes a bitmap or pixmap file name.  The Icon Editor will first try to open the exact file name.  If this fails, it will look for the same file name with a .pm or .bm suffix. 

-x widthxheight
This option specifies an initial geometry for the icon image.  If a file is specified using the -f option, the size of that icon supersedes the geometry specified.

-noMessaging
This option forces the Icon Editor to forego connecting to the BMS. This will result in the Icon Editor being unable to support the dragging and dropping of files. This is equivalent to setting the useMessaging resource to False. 

-session file
This option takes the name of a session file as an additional parameter. The icon editor is run with the specified session file name.  The session file is a file that was previously saved by the icon editor through a session shutdown.  This option causes all other command line options to be ignored, as all settings are taken from the specified session file.

RESOURCES

The following table and descriptions define resources used to specify data for the vueicon program.
