Cascade [-f config\_file] [-v | --version] [-h | --help] [-a] [-desk] [-flatx] [-flaty] [-incx arg] [-incy arg] [-m] [-noraise] [-nostretch] [-r] [-resize] [-s] [-t] [-u] [x y [width height]]

Although Cascade can be run from the command line, it is normally spawned by afterstep in the autoexec file, in the following manner:

% cat “~/GNUstep/Library/AfterStep/start/Modules/Cascade”  
Module “Animate” Cascade -resize 10 2 80 70  
MiniPixmap “mini-as.xpm”

To stop the Cascade module, a menu item can be used:

% cat “~/GNUstep/Library/AfterStep/start/Modules/Cascade\_Stop”  
KillModuleByName “Stop Cascade” Cascade  
MiniPixmap “mini-as.xpm”

Im sure there is an easier way or GUI somewhere out there also.
