NAME
toolwait - control client program startup
SYNOPSIS
toolwait [ -display displaystring ] [ -timeout nseconds ] [
-help ] command
DESCRIPTION
toolwait is a program that controls the startup of an X11
client program. toolwait takes a client program as its
argument. When the client program has started, toolwait
will exit.
OPTIONS
The basic options are as follows:
-display string
Specify the name of the display that toolwait
should monitor. Overrides the DISPLAY
environment variable, if any.
-timeout nsecs Specifies the time to wait for the client to
start up. Toolwait will exit if the client
hasn't started by nsecs seconds. Default is
15 seconds.
-help Display a short summary of the possible com-
mand line options.
EXAMPLES
To start a cmdtool with toolwait, the following command may
be used:
example% toolwait cmdtool -Wp 0 0 -Ws 557 95 -WP 263 833
To start a mailtool on display "host2" with a timeout of 25
seconds, use the following command:
example% toolwait -display host2:0 -timeout 25 mailtool
-display host2:0
DIAGNOSTICS
Exit status is 0 for clean exits, the exit status of the
child if the child has problems, and 1 if toolwait has prob-
lems.
NOTES
In the current version of toolwait, a client is considered
"started" when it has mapped a top level window on the
display. As soon as toolwait detects that a top level window
has been mapped, it will exit.
The OpenWindows environment may no longer be supported in a
future release. You may want to migrate to CDE, the Common
Desktop Environment.
