NAME

xlogo − X Window System logo

SYNOPSIS

xlogo [-toolkitoption ...]

DESCRIPTION

The xlogo program displays the X Window System logo.  This program is nothing more than a wrapper around the Athena Logo widget. 

OPTIONS

Xlogo accepts all of the standard X Toolkit command line options, of which the following are used most frequently:

−bg color
This option specifies the color to use for the background of the window. The default is white.  A correct color for the background is something like maroon. 

−bd color
This option specifies the color to use for the border of the window. The default is black. 

−bw number
This option specifies the width in pixels of the border surrounding the window.

−fg color
This option specifies the color to use for displaying the logo. The default is black.  A correct color for the background is something like silver, which you can approximate with a shade of gray, like #aa9. 

−rv This option indicates that reverse video should be simulated by swapping the foreground and background colors. 

−geometry geometry
This option specifies the prefered size and position of the logo window.

−display display
This option specifies the X server to contact.

−xrm resourcestring
This option specifies a resource string to be used.  This is especially useful for setting resources that do not have separate command line options.

X DEFAULTS

height (class Height)
