  [ ,PathName ... ] } ] [  m [ Acceleration [ Threshold ] ] ] [

  Description
  
  The xset command customizes the Xstation environment.  This com-
  mand resides in the /usr/lpp/x_st_mgr/bin directory.  If you use
  the xset command without flags, information about the command ap-
  pears on the display.
  
  Note:	Each time you restart your Xserver, you will lose your xset
  settings.  These settings can be stored  in  an  X  configuration
  file, allowing them to be restored upon rebooting.
  
  Flags
  
  display name:0	Indicates the Xserver on which the xset options
  are to be enabled.
  
  b Number	Controls the bell on an Xstation.
  
  For Xstation 120, the Number variable should be left blank, be-
  cause there is no volume control.  The b flag turns the bell on,
  and a -b flag turns it off.
  
  For Xstation 130, four sound volumes are possible, each con-
  trolled by a range of numbers:
  
  Volume	Number Range
  
  off	0 to 24
  
  low	25 to 49
  
  medium	50 to 74
  
  high	75 to 100
  
  The default value is 50, which sets the volume to medium.  To
  reset the default value, use either the xset b 50 or the xset b
  -1 command.
  
  fp	Sets the font path.  If you specify a PathName parameter with
  fp=, the font path is set to the directories given in the
  PathName.  An fp+ adds an additional font path.  An fp- deletes a
  font path.  If you specify fp without parameters, or use fp de-
  fault, the server default parameters are used.
  
  The directories are interpreted by the server (Xstation) and are
  server-dependent.  Directories that do not contain font databases
  created by the mkfontdir command are ignored by the server.
  
  fp default	Sets the server's default fonts as the Xserver's font
  path.
  
  fp+	Adds the font path specified by the PathName parameter to the
  bottom of the font list.
  
  fp-	Deletes the font path specified by the PathName parameter.
  
  fp=	Sets the font path specified by the PathName parameter.
  
  +fp	Adds the specified font path to the top of the font list.
  
  -fp	Deletes the specified font path.
  
  fp rehash	Recreates the font database by requesting the server to
  reread the font databases in the current font path.  This command
  must be given after the mkfontdir command is run to add the new
  font directories to the database.
  
  PathName	Specifies the font path to add, delete, or set.
  
  m	Sets the acceleration and threshold for the mouse.  If the m
  flag is used without parameters, or if you specify m default, the
  system default values are used.  The Acceleration variable sets
  the multiplier for the mouse movement.  The Threshold variable
  sets  the  minimum  number of pixels needed to invoke a movement.
  If  only  one  parameter is specified, it is interpreted  as  the
  Acceleration variable.
  
  q	Displays information on the current settings.
  
  r	Controls the autorepeat option.  This flag may be preceded with
  a - (dash) or followed by on or off.  If you specify r or r on,
  the autorepeat option is enabled.  If you specify -r or r off,
  the autorepeat option is disabled.
  
  s	Sets the screen saver parameters.  If s or s default is speci-
  fied, the system default parameters are used.  The s flag can be
  used alone, with a Length parameter, or with both a Length and a
  Period parameter.  The Length parameter specifies the number of
  seconds the server must be  inactive  before  the screen saver is
  turned on.  The Period parameter specifies the number of seconds
  before  the  background  pattern is changed to avoid burn-in.  If
  only one parameter is specified, it is interpreted as the Length
  parameter.
  
  In addition, one of the following can be used:
  
  s off	Turns the screen saver off.
  
  s blank	Displays a blank screen.
  
  s noblank	Displays a pattern.
  
  s expose	Allows window exposures.  The server can discard the
  contents of windows.
  
  s noexpose	Disables the screen saver, unless the server can re-
  generate screens without causing exposure events.
  
  s default	Uses system default parameters for the screen saver.
  
  Examples
  
  1.	To set the bell on an Xstation 130 to low, enter:
  
  xset b 30
  
  Any number from 25 to 49 can be used to set the bell to low.
  
  2.	If you change the default value and want to reset it to 50,
  enter either of the following:
  
  xset b -1
  OR
  xset b 50
