NAME
     Cascade - the AfterStep window cascading module


SYNOPSIS
     Cascade [-f config_file] [-v | --version] [-h | --help] [-a]
     [-desk]  [-flatx]  [-flaty]  [-incx  arg]  [-incy  arg] [-m]
     [-noraise] [-nostretch] [-r] [-resize] [-s] [-t] [-u]  [x  y
     [width height]]


     Although Cascade can be run from the  command  line,  it  is
     normally  spawned  by afterstep in the autoexec file, in the
     following manner:

     % cat "~/GNUstep/Library/AfterStep/start/Modules/Cascade"
          Module "Animate" Cascade -resize 10 2 80 70
          MiniPixmap "mini-as.xpm"

     To stop the Cascade module, a menu item can be used:

     % cat "~/GNUstep/Library/AfterStep/start/Modules/Cascade_Stop"
          KillModuleByName "Stop Cascade" Cascade
          MiniPixmap "mini-as.xpm"


DESCRIPTION
     The Cascade  module  attempts  to  cascade  windows  on  the
     current  screen subject to certain constraints.  Layering is
     performed so consecutive  windows  will  have  their  window
     titles visible underneath the previous.


OPTIONS
     -f config_file
          Use config_file instead of  the  default  configuration
          file.


     -h | --help
          Print a usage message and exit successfully.


     -v | --version
          Print version information and exit successfully.


     -a   Causes all window styles to be affected, even ones with
          the WindowListSkip style.


     -desk
          Causes all windows on the desk to be  cascaded  instead
          of the current screen only.


     -flatx
          Inhibits border width increment.


     -flaty
          Inhibits border height increment.


     -incx arg
          Specifies a horizontal increment which is  successively
          added  to  cascaded  windows.   arg  is a percentage of
          screen width, or  pixel  value  if  a  p  is  suffixed.
          Default is zero.


     -incy arg
          Specifies a vertical increment  which  is  successively
          added  to  cascaded  windows.   arg  is a percentage of
          screen height, or pixel  value  if  a  p  is  suffixed.
          Default is zero.


     -m   Causes maximized windows to also be  affected  (implied
          by -all).


     -noraise
          Inhibits window raising,  leaving  the  depth  ordering
          intact.


     -nostretch
          Inhibits  window  expansion  when  using  the   -resize
          option.   Windows  will  only shrink to fit the maximal
          width and height (if given).


     -r   Reverses the window sequence.


     -resize
          Forces all windows to resize to the  constrained  width
          and height (if given).


     -s   Causes sticky windows to also be affected  (implied  by
          -all).

     -t   Causes transient windows to also be  affected  (implied
          by -all).


     -u   Causes untitled windows to also be affected (implied by
          -all).


INVOCATION
     Cascade can be invoked from binding the action "Module  Cas-
     cade  options"  to  a key-stroke in the feel, or from a menu
     item as shown in the Synopsis section above.

     The Cascade module can also be called  multiple  times  with
     different  options. This way multiple Cascading programs can
     be used, and is unlike other modules which require a symlink
     to run multiple times.


CONFIGURATION OPTIONS
     Command-line arguments passed to Cascade  are  described  in
     the OPTIONS section, above.

     Up to four numbers can be placed on the  command  line  that
     are  not switches.  The first pair specify an x and y offset
     to start the first window (default is  0,  0).   The  second
     pair specify a maximal width and height for the layered win-
     dows.  If an affected window exceeds either  this  width  or
     height,  it  is  resized to the maximal width or height.  If
     each number is suffixed with the letter p, then it is  taken
     to be a pixel value, otherwise it is interpreted as a screen
     percentage.  Specifying zero for any parameter is equivalent
     to not specifying it.


EXAMPLE
     As an example case, one could call Cascade with the  follow-
     ing arguments:

     Cascade -resize 10 2 80 70

     This invocation will cascade windows starting 10 by  2  per-
     cent  into and down the screen.  Windows will be constrained
     to 80 by 70 percent of the  screen  dimensions.   Since  the
     resize  is  also  specified,  windows will be resized to the
     given constrained width and height.


BUGS
     It is probably not a good idea to delete windows while  win-
     dows are being cascaded.
