+.B dpms \fIflags...\fP
+The \fBdpms\fP option allows the DPMS (Energy Star) parameters to be
+set. The option can take up to three numerical values, or the `force'
+flag followed by a DPMS state. The `force' flags forces the server
+to immediately switch to the DPMS state specified. The DPMS state can
+be one of `standby', `suspend', `off', or `on'. When numerical values are
+given, they set the inactivity period
+(in units of seconds)
+before the three modes are activated.
+The first value given is for the `standby' mode, the second is for the
+`suspend' mode, and the third is for the `off' mode. Setting these
+values implicitly enables the DPMS features. A value of zero disables
+a particular mode.

+If the server supports the XFree86-Misc extension,

+values. The first specifies the delay before autorepeat starts and
+the second specifies the repeat rate. In the case that the server
