NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

     raise - Change a window's position	in the stacking	order

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

     raise window ?aboveThis?

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     If	the aboveThis argument is omitted then the command raises window so
     that it is	above all of its siblings in the stacking order	(it will not
     be	obscured by any	siblings and will obscure any siblings that overlap
     it).  If aboveThis	is specified then it must be the path name of a	window
     that is either a sibling of window	or the descendant of a sibling of
     window.  In this case the raise command will insert window	into the
     stacking order just above aboveThis (or the ancestor of aboveThis that is
     a sibling of window); this	could end up either raising or lowering
     window.
