NAME

vuecommand − provide execution support for TriTeal VUE clients

SYNOPSIS

vuecommand [−terminal terminal-emulator] [−help]

DESCRIPTION

vuecommand is a TriTeal VUE daemon which accepts requests to invoke UNIX commands and to start applications which create their own windows.  The output from the UNIX commands can be displayed in several window types.  The commands and applications can be started on any host which is properly configured to run TriTeal VUE. 

vuecommand uses the X11 terminal emulator (see xterm (1)) to display the output for all of its non-window smart requests.  To change the appearance or behavior of vuecommand’s windows, set the appropriate resource for xterm. 

OPTIONS

−terminal <terminal_emulator>
Specifies the terminal emulator to use for the terminal caching.  The default is /usr/vue/bin/xterm.

−help Prints the usage and then exits.
