6NAME
7----
8fluxbox-remote - command line access to key commands for fluxbox(1)
9
10SYNOPSIS
11--------
12*fluxbox-remote* 'command'
13
14DESCRIPTION
15-----------
16'fluxbox-remote(1)' is designed to allow scripts to execute most key commands from 'fluxbox(1)'. 'fluxbox-remote(1)' will only work with 'fluxbox(1)': its communications with 'fluxbox(1)' are not standardized in any way. It is recommended that a standards-based tool such as 'wmctrl(1)' be used whenever possible, in order for scripts to work with other window managers.
17
18CAVEATS
19-------
20'fluxbox-remote(1)' uses the X11 protocol to communicate with 'fluxbox(1)'.
21Therefore, it is possible for any user with access to the 'X(7)' server to use
22'fluxbox-remote(1)'. For this reason, several key commands have been disabled.
23Users should be aware of the security implications when enabling
24'fluxbox-remote(1)', especially when using a forwarded 'X(7)' connection.
25
26RESOURCES
27---------
28session.screen0.allowRemoteActions: <boolean>::
29 This resource in ~/.fluxbox/init must be set to `true' in order for
30 'fluxbox-remote(1)' to function. Please read the *CAVEATS* first.
31
32ENVIRONMENT
33-----------
34In order to communicate with 'fluxbox(1)', the DISPLAY environment variable must
35be set properly. Usually, the value should be `:0.0'.
