                     visible or invisible.

                     Default if omitted:  use the pathname of the window where
                                          the cursor was last positioned


OPTIONS

  If no option is specified, WI toggles the current visiblity setting.

  -I                 Force the window or group to be invisible.

  -W                 Force the window or group to appear as a window.
