10.0;wm (window_move) *DM*, revision 1.0, 87/12/23
wm (window_move) move a window across the screen
usage: [region wm]
DESCRIPTION
The wm command moves a window across the screen. The DM moves the window
whose nearest unobscured edge or corner is the first point of the region.
The new location of this edge or corner is the second point of the
region. Therefore, to move a window, place the cursor at one corner of
the window you want to move and issue the dr command (or press <MARK>.
Next, place the cursor at the desired new position of the corner.
Finally, issue the wm command.
If you do not define a region, the wm command causes the nearest window
corner to be moved to the current cursor position. However, this can
cause unexpected results if there are multiple windows on the screen,
since your idea of the nearest window may not be the same as the DM's.
In that case, it is safer to mark the window you want to move.
ARGUMENTS
region (optional)
Specify the old and new locations of the edge or corner.
You can do so in a variety of formats: see the help window
for more information.
Default if omitted: use the current cursor position
NOTE
A companion move command, wme, provides visible feedback during a move
operation.
