Other Help Topics :: maximizing an x11 window

I am running a graphing program (gnuplot) that is running as part of a script. It generates a graph in a new window and then shuts down leaving the graph window.

From the script, how do I maximize the x11 graph window to full screen from the script.

I know the name of the window from "top" but need some sort of tool that manipulates x11 applications from the command line.

Anyone?

wmctrl? But the current fluxbox in DSL will not be able to use it...
See http://www.sweb.cz/tripie/utils/wmctrl/

Thanks for finding that for me.

As it turned out I was able to get some help from the gnuplot newsgroup which pointed out that there were command line options that could achieve my desired result.

i.e. gnuplot -persist -geometry 1024x768

I am glad I didn't have to compile wmctrl as I feel like I am in a maze of twisty looking passages and keep getting deeper and deeper.

Cheers Phil
