WPrefs - Man Page

WPrefs [options]

WPrefs.app is the preferences "editor" for the WindowMaker window manager. It can be used to set most of the preference options of WindowMaker and define its applications menu. It also can change some settings that do not belong to WindowMaker.

Although WPrefs.app is designed to be easy to use, you should read the user guide to be fully aware of all available options and other features of WindowMaker that are not related to configuration.

Only options that have different values than what is found in the system-wide configuration file is saved.
