.SH NAME
pam \- remove sticky window from \*(Sd display
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B pam
.SH DESCRIPTION
.B pam
is a
.BR psh (1)
script that causes a specified window to be unmapped from the 
display.  The command prompts the user to click a mouse button with
the mouse positioned over the "stuck" window by drawing a lightning
bolt near the cursor.
If the window that is clicked on happens to be a frame for a NeWS
Toolkit based
application, the window will be destroyed and the memory it occupies
may be reclaimed depending on the situation that caused it to become
stuck in the first place.
This destruction is in addition to the standard unmapping action.
.LP
This tool is useful when an application has exited and left a
window displayed that is not usable (due to an internal error).  
Using this command
does not deallocate any memory or fix the problem, but it
will unmap the window so it will no longer be visible.
