NAME

xlsatoms − list interned atoms defined on the server. 

SYNTAX

xlsatoms [options]

DESCRIPTION

xlsatoms lists the interned atoms.  By default, all atoms starting from 1 (the lowest atom value defined by the protocol) are listed until an unknown atom is found.  If an explicit range is given, xlsatoms will try all atoms in the range, regardless of whether or not any are undefined. 

OPTIONS

xlsatoms accepts the following options:

-display [host]:server[.screen]
Specifies the display, server, and screen to use. host is the hostname of the physical display, server specifies the server number, and screen specifies the screen number.  For example: % xlsatoms -display your_node:0.1 specifies screen 1 of server 0 on the display named by your_node.  Either or both the host and screen elements can be omitted.  If host is omitted, the local display is assumed.  If screen is omitted, screen 0 is assumed (and the period is unnecessary).  The colon and server are necessary in all cases. 

-format printf_string
Specifies a printf-style string used to list each atom <value,name> pair, printed in that order (value is an unsigned long and name is a char ∗).  xlsatoms will supply a newline at the end of each line.  The default is %ld\t%s. 

-name string
Specifies the name of an atom to list.  If the atom does not exist, a message will be printed on the standard error.

-range [low]-[high]
Specifies the range of atom values to check.  If low is not given, a value of 1 assumed.  If high is not given, xlsatoms will stop at the first undefined atom at or above low.
