NAME
       gtk-options - Standard Command Line Options for GTK+ Programs

SYNOPSIS
       program [standard options] [specific options] arguments

DESCRIPTION
       This  manual  page  describes the command line options, which are common to all GTK+ based
       applications.

OPTIONS
   GTK+ OPTIONS
       --gtk-module=MODULE
              Load an additional Gtk module.

       --gtk-debug=FLAGS
              A colon separated list of GTK+ debugging flags to set.  Valid  flags  are  objects,
              misc, signals, dnd, and plugsocket.  The special value all enables all flags.

       --gtk-no-debug=FLAGS
              GTK+ debugging flags to unset.  Use this options to override the GTK_DEBUG environ‐
              ment variable.

       --g-fatal-warnings
              Make all warnings fatal.

   GDK OPTIONS
       --display=DISPLAY
              Set the X display to use.  Use this option  to  override  the  DISPLAY  environment
              variable.

       --screen=SCREEN
              X screen to use.  Use this options to override the screen part of the DISPLAY envi‐
              ronment variable (see the DISPLAY NAMES section of the X(7x) manual page).

       --sync Make X calls synchronous.  This slows down the program  considerably,  but  may  be
              useful for debugging purposes.

       --no-xshm
              Do  not  use the X server´s XSHM shared memory extension.  This slows down the pro‐
              gram.

       --name=NAME
              Program name as used by the window manager.

       --class=CLASS
              Program class as used by the window manager.

       --gxid_host=HOST

       --gxid_port=PORT

       --xim-preedit

       --xim-status
              Control the X input method.

       --gdk-debug=FLAGS
              A colon-separated list of GDK debugging flags to set.  This only works if your  GDK
              library  was  compile  with  debugging support.  Valid flags are events, misc, dnd,
              color-context, and xim.  The special value all enables all valid flags.

       --gdk-no-debug=FLAGS
              A colon-separated list of GDK debugging flags to unset.  Use this options to  over‐
              ride the GDK_DEBUG environment variable.

SEE ALSO
       X(7x), the GTK+ documentation, and the GDK documentation.

       For  most  GTK+ programs there will be additional command line options, which are specific
       to the program.  These will be explained in the application´s documentation.
