The QuadDisplay command creates a new window (given by the pathName argument) and makes it into a widget that is comprised of four display widgets which will be referred to as panes (i.e. ul - upper left pane, ur - upper right pane, ll - lower left pane, lr - lower right pane). Additional options, described above, may be specified on the command line or in the option database to configure aspects of the QuadDisplay widget. The QuadDisplay command returns its pathName argument. At the time this command is invoked, there must not exist a window named pathName, but pathName's parent must exist.

METHODS
