        !             9: .PP
        !            10: .I Xwd
        !            11: is an X Window System (protocol version 10) window image dumping utility.
        !            12: .I Xwd
        !            13: allows X users to store window images in a specially formated window dump
        !            14: file.  This file can then be read by various other X utilities for
        !            15: redisplay, printing, editing, formatting, archiving, image processing etc..
        !            16: The target window is selected by clicking the mouse in the desired window.
        !            17: The keyboard bell is rung once at the beginning of the dump and twice when
        !            18: the dump is completed.  The window dump file format is currently under
        !            19: development; no guarantee of upward compatibility is made: the dump file
        !            20: format will be completely different under V11.
        !            21: .SH ARGUMENT SUMMARY
        !            22: .PP
        !            23: .TP 8
        !            24: .B "-help"
        !            25: Print out the `Usage:' command syntax summary.
        !            26: .PP
        !            27: .TP 8
        !            28: .B "-nobdrs"
        !            29: This argument specifies that the window dump  should  not  include  the
        !            30: pixels that compose the X window border.  This is useful in situations
        !            31: where you may wish to include the  window  contents in a document 
        !            32: as an illustration.
        !            33: .PP
        !            34: .TP 8
        !            35: .B "-out \fIfile\fP"
        !            36: This argument allows the user to explicitly specify the output
        !            37: file on the command line.  The default is to output to standard out.
        !            38: .PP
        !            39: .TP 8
        !            40: .B "-xy"
        !            41: This option applies to color displays only. It selects `XY' format dumping
        !            42: instead of the default `Z' format. Monochrome displays are always dumped in
        !            43: `XY' format.
        !            44: .PP
        !            45: .TP 8

        !            47: This  argument  allow  you  to  specify the host and display number on
        !            48: which to find the target window.  For example `xwd orpheus:1'
        !            49: would specify that the target window is on display `1' on the machine
        !            50: `orpheus'.  By default,
        !            51: .I xwd
        !            52: uses the host and display number stored in the environment variable
        !            53: DISPLAY, and therefore this argument is not normally specified.
        !            54: .SH ENVIRONMENT
