  13         Please remember that if you create the nroff version in one of the
  14         debian/rules file targets (such as build), you will need to include
  15         docbook-to-man in your Build-Depends control field.

  49
  50     <para>obxprop is a tool for displaying the properties on an x
  51       window.</para>
  52
  53     <para>This tool has a similar functionality to <command>xprop</command>,
  54       but obxprop allows you to see UTF-8 strings as text.</para>
  55
  56     <para>You may use the <command>--id</command> option to specify a window
  57       identifier, otherwise obxprop will allow you to select a window by
  58       clicking on it.</para>
  59
  60     <para>Primarily, this tool exists for Openbox users to see the value of the
  61       _OB_APP_NAME, _OB_APP_CLASS, _OB_APP_ROLE, and _OB_APP_TYPE properties,
  62       which Openbox uses for
  63       matching windows against user-defined application rules.</para>

  91     <para>Similar to <command>xprop</command>,

  94       requested.</para>
