10.0;wi (window_invisible) *DM*, revision 1.0, 87/12/23
wi (window_invisible)  make a window or group visible or invisible
usage:  wi [entry_name [-w|-i]]



DESCRIPTION
     The wi command controls the visibility of the specified window or group.
     wi without options toggles the current mode. If you do not specify an
     entry_name (the name of a window or group) wi uses the name of the window
     under the cursor.

ARGUMENTS
     entry_name (optional)
                      Specify the name of the window or group you want to make
                      visible or invisible.  If the name of the window or
                      group appears as a text string somewhere on the display,
                      you can use the following time-saving feature: place the
                      cursor on the name, then press <MARK>.  Now issue the wi
                      command.  wi uses the marked name for the entry_name
                      argument.

                      Default if omitted:  manipulate the window under the
                      cursor

OPTIONS
     If you do not specify an option, wi toggles the current visiblity
     setting.

     -i               Force the window or group to be invisible.

     -w               Force the window or group to appear as a window.
