Hello,

I'm running XFree86 3.1.2 on FreeBSD 2.1R on several pcs, and some
of my users run the olvwm (open-windows) window management system.

One of the options in the standard menu is a "Properties" option,
which under linux or SunOS launches a binary called
/usr/openwin/bin/props, and lets the user control several aspects
of their x environment.

I can't seem to find this program in the XFree86 distribution
for FreeBSD.  

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

thanks,

tom
