 Name

    xlsatoms - list interned atoms defined on server

 Syntax

    xlsatoms [-options...]

 Description

    xlsatoms lists the interned atoms.  By default, all atoms starting from 1
    (the lowest atom value defined by the protocol) are listed until unknown
    atom is found.  If an explicit range is given, xlsatoms will try all
    atoms in the range, regardless of whether or not any are undefined.

 Options


    -display dpy   This option specifies the X server to which to connect.

    -format string This option specifies a printf-style string used to list
                   each atom value,name pair, printed in that order (value is
                   an unsigned long and name is a char *).  xlsatoms will
                   supply a newline at the end of each line.  The default is
                   ``%ld\t%s.''

    -range[low]-[high]
                   This option specifies the range of atom values to check.
                   If low is not given, a value of 1 assumed.  If high is not
                   given, xlsatoms will stop at the first undefined atom at
                   or above low.

    -name string   This option specifies the name of an atom to list.  If the
                   atom does not exist, a message will be printed on the
                   standard error.
