wmname - prints/sets window manager name
SYNOPSIS
wmname [-v] [ WM_NAME ]

wmname is a nice utility to fix problems with JDK versions and other
broken programs, which are assuming a reparenting window manager.
OPTIONS
wmname prints its version when fed with -v.
ENVIRONMENT
wmname uses DISPLAY to determine which display to act on.
