     9WIN(1)                                                   9WIN(1)

     NAME
          9win - create a Plan 9 window within Inferno

     SYNOPSIS
          9win [ -s ] [ -x width ] [ -y height ] [ cmd [ arg ... ] ]

     DESCRIPTION
          9win creates a window for a graphical Plan 9 command
          (default rio) to run in. If provided, width and height give
          a desired width and height for the new window.  Cmd gives
          the command to run, and arg its arguments.

          The -s option tells 9win to run in server mode. Used by
          9cpu(1), it exports on its standard input a namespace suit-
          able for a graphical Plan 9 program to run within. With this
          option, no command may be given.

     BUGS
          9win does not export a full rio environment, so Plan 9 pro-
          grams that wish to create new windows will not work cor-
          rectly (unless running inside a rio started by 9win)
