Windop Ops menu
Contains:
- Move, for moving the window.
- Resize, for resizing the window.
- Raise, for raising the window to top.
- Lower, for pushing it to the bottom.
- (De)Iconify, to reduce the window to an icon, or back again.
- (Un)Stick, to change whether a window follows you when you move to a different desktop.
- (Un)Maximize, resize to fill entire screen or undo.
- Destroy, sends the window an xkill message (almost always kills the window).
- Close, sends the window a message to tell it to close this window. In some cases this closes just the frame selected, but some badly written X-applications either ignore this or shut-down completely.
- Refresh Screen, asks all applications to redraw themselves.
- Lock Screen, locks the screen. Please don't do this on public terminals except for very short periods of time. We don't have enough machines to satisfy demand, so locking a public machine is very anti-social.
