<!-- Resources and command syntax commented out per Dave T. and Anna E.
************************************************************
The following resources control the !!initial!! appearance and behavior of
File Manager.
You can override several of these resource values using command-line
options with the ``dtfile'' command. (See <xref FMCommandSyntaxSI>.)
``Dtfile*appHeight: %%height%%<newline>
Dtfile*appWidth: %%width%%''
<p indent>Specifies the default size of an Application Manager
view window, where %%height%% and %%width%% are specified in
pixels. The default height is ``365''; the default width is ``365''.
``Dtfile*checkBrokenLink: %%seconds%%''
<p indent>Specifies the time interval (in seconds) that determines
how often File Manger checks open folders for broken links.
The default is 180 seconds.
<idx|performace: File Manager|
<p indent>If the ``checkBrokenLink'' resource is set to ``0''
(zero), File Manager does not automatically check for broken
links, which may provide better performance on some systems.
``Dtfile*desktopIcon: [ large | small ]'
<p indent>Specifies the size of the icon images used for objects on
the desktop. The default is ``large''.
``Dtfile*direction: [ ascending | descending ]''
<p indent>Specifies the order used when sorting. The default is
``ascending''. The sorting criteria is determined by the ``order''
resource.
``Dtfile*dirHeight: %%height%%<newline>
Dtfile*dirWidth: %%width%%''
<p indent>Specifies the default size of a folder view window, where
%%height%% and %%width%% are specified in pixels. The default
height is ``305''; the default width is ``555''. (Related Topics the
``appHeight'' and ``appWidth'' resources, above.)
``Dtfile*fileManagerIcon: %%filename%%''
<p indent>Specifies the icon to display when a File Manager window
is minimized. The default value is ``home.i.bm''.
``Dtfile*grid: [ on | off ]''
<p indent>Specifies whether or not to use a grid to arrange icons
within a folder view. If set ``on'', icons are automatically
arranged in a sorted grid. If set ``off'', icons are left exactly
as you place them. (The default is ``on''.)
``Dtfile*help_volume: %%helpvolume%%''
<p indent>Specifies an alternate help volume.
"help_volume", "Help_volume", XmRString, sizeof (char *),
XtOffset (ApplicationArgsPtr, help_volume), XmRImmediate, (XtPointer)NULL,
``Dtfile*largeIconHeight: %%height%%<newline>
Dtfile*largeIconWidth: %%width%%''
<p indent>Specifies the maximum size of an icon, where
%%height%% and %%width%% are specified in pixels.

before an action is considered a "drag" or "move." The default is
4 pixels.
``Dtfile*objectPlacement: %%primary%% %%secondary%%''
<p indent>Specifies where objects are placed on the desktop when
the Put On Desktop command is used. Values for %%primary%% and
%%secondary%% include ``top'' (arrange icons top to bottom),
``bottom'' (arrange icons bottom to top), ``left'' (arrange icons
left to right), and ``right'' (arrange icons right to left).
<p indent>The default value is ``top right'', which causes icons
to be placed in the top-right corner of the screen, then stacked
down the right edge as additional objects are placed on the
desktop.
<p indent>This resource is ignored if you drop an object on the
desktop, because the location is determined when you drop. (See
<xref ToPutAnObjectOnTheDesktopTA>.)
``Dtfile*openDir: [ new | current ]''
<p indent>Specifies the criteria for opening a folder on a
double-click. The default value of ``current'' opens the new
folder in the current window.
<p indent>The value ``new'' causes File Manager to open a new view
for each folder. It also restricts itself so that only a single
view of each folder can be created. If the view already exists
but is not visible, File Manager ensures that it is visible by
bringing it to the current workspace (if necessary) and raising it
to the top of the window stack.
``Dtfile*order: [ file_type | alphabetical | date | size ]''
<p indent>Specifies the criteria for sorting objects. The
direction of the sort is determined by the ``direction'' resource.
<p indent>Sorting occurs automatically the first time a folder
is displayed. If the ``grid'' resource is set ``on'', then the
folder is sorted each time a change is made to the folder.
If the grid is off, then sorting occurs only when you choose the
View&bigrightarrow;Clean Up command.
The default value is ``alphabetical''.
``Dtfile*rereadTime: %%seconds%%''
<p indent>Specifies the time interval that determines how often
File Manager checks the displayed folders for changes. The
default is 10 seconds.
<p indent>If ``rereadTime'' is set to ``0'' (zero), File Manager
does not automatically refresh folders. To update a File
Manager view, you must choose the Update command from
the View menu
or double-click the current folder icon (just left of
the current folder path).
``Dtfile*restrictMode: [ True | False ]''
<p indent>Specifies whether or not you can navigate out of your
home folder. The default is ``False''.
``Dtfile*rootTitle: %%string%%''
<p indent>Specifies a title to be displayed when a File Manager
view is displaying the root folder (``/''). The default is
``ROOT''. The string is also used to identify the root folder
if it is placed on the desktop.
``Dtfile*showFilesystem: [ True | False ]''
<p indent>Specifies whether or not to display the current folder
header. The default is ``True'', which shows the path.
``Dtfile*smallIconHeight: %%height%%<newline>
Dtfile*smallIconWidth: %%width%%''
<p indent>Specifies the maximum size of a small icon, where
%%height%% and %%width%% are specified in pixels.
``Dtfile*title: %%string%%''
<p indent>Specifies a title for File Manager windows. By default,
this resource is not set, which causes each File Manager to use the
current folder name as its title.
``Dtfile*treeFiles: [ never | always | choose ]''
<p indent>Controls whether files may be displayed in the folder
tree mode. The possible values correspond to the options under
By Folder Tree in the Show box in the Set View Options dialog box.
<lablist>
ever\ Files are never displayed. You may toggle between
two folder states: partially expanded (folders
only) and fully contracted. This value is the same as the
Folders only option.
\always\ Files are always displayed. You may toggle between
two folder states: fully expanded and fully contracted.
This value is the same as the Folders and Files option.
\choose\ Files may or may not be displayed. You may rotate
between three folder states: partially expanded, fully
expanded, and fully contracted. This value is the same as
the Folders, then Files option.
<\lablist>
``Dtfile*treeView: [ on | off ]''
<p indent>Determines whether files are displayed in single-folder
mode (``on'') or folder-tree mode (``off'').
``Dtfile*view: [ no_icon | small_icon | large_icon | attributes ]''
<p indent>Specifies the style of view used to display a folder.
The default is ``large_icon''. These values correspond to the four
choices in the View box within the Set View Options dialog box.

<idx|File Manager command (``Dtfile'')|
The command-line syntax for starting File Manager is:
<ex>
dtfile [%%options%%] &&
<\ex>
Where %%options%% includes the following:
<lablist>
\``-direction [ ascending | descending ]''\
Specifies the order used when sorting. The default is
``ascending''. The sorting criteria is determined by the
``order'' resource.
\``-directory %%directory%%''\
Specifies the initial %%folder%% to view. If not
specified, your current folder is displayed. This
option may be abbreviated as ``-dir %%directory%%''.
\``-grid [ on | off ]''\
Specifies where objects are located in the folder
view window. If ``on'', the objects are always displayed
in a grid pattern and rearranged, if necessary, when an
object is moved. If ``off'', objects are displayed
where they are placed by the user and are never rearranged.
The default is ``on''.
\``-large_icon_height %%height%%''\
Specifies the maximum height in pixels for large icons.
\``-large_icon_width %%width%%''\
Specifies the maximum width in pixels for large icons.
\``-noview''\ Causes File Manager to run in server mode. In other words,
a window is not displayed until a user or another program
makes a request to display a folder.
\``-order [ alphabetical | file_type | date | size ]''\
Specifies the order in which to display objects.
\``-restricted''\
Specifies that the File Manager is restricted to the
initial folder. You are allowed to navigate to
subfolders, but not to any parent folder above
the folder specified with ``-directory
%%directory%%''. Also in restricted mode, the path
area (just below the menu bar) displays ``/.../'' to
represent the path to the restricted folder.
\``-session %%session_file%%''\
Specifies the session file to use when starting File
Manager. Session files are generated when you exit the
File Manager.
\``-small_icon_height %%height%%''\
Specifies the maximum height in pixels for small icons.
\``-small_icon_width %%width%%''\
Specifies the maximum width in pixels for small icons.
\``-title %%title_name%%''\
Specifies the title for the File Manager windows. All
windows and dialog boxes generated by this session of
File Manager will use this title. If no title is
specified, the name of the current folder is used
as the window title.
\``-tree [ on | off ]''\
Specifies whether File Manager displays file in tree-view
mode (``on'') or in single-folder mode (``off'').
\``-view [ no_icon | large_icon | small_icon | attributes ]''\
Specifies the style of view used to display a folder.
The default is ``large_icon''. These values correspond
to the four choices in the View box within the Set
Preferences dialog box.
