kxterm - the CERN KUIP terminal emulator SYNOPSIS
kxterm [class] [options] DESCRIPTION
kxterm is a terminal emulator combining the best features of the (now defunct) Apollo DM pads (like: input and transcript pads, automatic file backup of transcript pad, string search in pads, etc.) and the Korn shell emacs-style command line editing and command line recall mechanism. For more detailed information about the program, please see the online help available from the kxterm Help menu. kxterm has a number of X resources which can be set by the user; these are listed in the online help and in the file /etc/X11/app-defaults/KXterm, where the default values are set. It should be noted that when kxterm is acting as a client for another application, the desired X resource should be prefixed by "Kx" plus the class name of the application. So for application "Foo" the kxterm resource class would be KxFoo, and one would set KxFoo*background, etc. One can also set the resource class of a kxterm window via the command-line with the class argument. OPTIONS
-font fn Specifies the font used by kxterm. The font fn must be an XLFD (X Logical Font Description), as for example displayed by the xls- fonts program. -geometry geom Specifies the preferred size and position of the kxterm window; see X(7x) for details. -h, -help Show a summary of options. -iconic Specifies that the window manager should start kxterm as an icon. -n iconname Specifies the name of the kxterm window in an iconic state. -name name Specifies both the title and the iconized name of the kxterm window. -pid pid Specifies the process ID of the program that kxterm should act as a client for. -prompt prompt Sets the prompt displayed in the input pad of the program. -tfont fn Specifies the font used by text boxes, the input pad, and the transcript pad of the program. This should probably be a fixed-width font like "courier" or "fixed". -title title Sets the title of the kxterm window to title. SEE ALSO

XDITVIEW(1) General Commands Manual XDITVIEW(1) NAME
xditview - display ditroff output SYNOPSIS
xditview [ -toolkitoption ... ] [ -option ... ] [ filename ] DESCRIPTION
The xditview program displays ditroff output on an X display. It uses no special metrics and automatically converts the printer coordi- nates into screen coordinates; using the user-specified screen resolution, rather than the actual resolution so that the appropriate fonts can be found. If ``-'' is given as the filename, xditview reads from standard input. If ``|'' is the first character of filename, xditview forks sh to run the rest of the ``file name'' and uses the standard output of that command. OPTIONS
Xditview accepts all of the standard X Toolkit command line options along with the additional options listed below: -page page-number This option specifies the page number of the document to be displayed at start up time. -resolution screen-resolution This specifies the desired screen resolution to use; fonts will be opened by requesting this resolution field in the XLFD names. -noPolyText Some X servers incorrectly implement PolyText with multiple strings per request. This option suppresses the use of this feature in xditview. -backingStore backing-store-type Redisplay can take up to a second or so; this option causes the server to save the window contents so that when it is scrolled around the viewport, the window is painted from contents saved in backing store. backing-store-type can be one of Always, When- Mapped or NotUseful. The following standard X Toolkit command line arguments are commonly used with xditview: -bg color This option specifies the color to use for the background of the window. The default is white. -bd color This option specifies the color to use for the border of the window. The default is black. -bw number This option specifies the width in pixels of the border surrounding the window. -fg color This option specifies the color to use for displaying text. The default is black. -fn font This option specifies the font to be used for displaying widget text. The default is fixed. -rv This option indicates that reverse video should be simulated by swapping the foreground and background colors. -geometry geometry This option specifies the preferred size and position of the window. -display host:display This option specifies the X server to contact. -xrm resourcestring This option specifies a resource string to be used. X DEFAULTS
This program uses a Dvi widget. It understands all of the core resource names and classes as well as: width (class Width) Specifies the width of the window. height (class Height) Specifies the height of the window. foreground (class Foreground) Specifies the default foreground color. font (class Font) Specifies the font to be used for error messages. FontMap (class FontMap) To associate the ditroff fonts with appropriate X fonts, this string resource contains a set of new-line separated specifications, each of which consists of a ditroff name, some white space and an XLFD pattern with * characters in appropriate places to allow all sizes to be listed. The default fontMap is: R -*-times-medium-r-normal--*-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1 I -*-times-medium-i-normal--*-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1 B -*-times-bold-r-normal--*-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1 F -*-times-bold-i-normal--*-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1 BI -*-times-bold-i-normal--*-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1 C -*-courier-medium-r-normal--*-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1 CO -*-courier-medium-o-normal--*-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1 CB -*-courier-bold-r-normal--*-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1 CF -*-courier-bold-o-normal--*-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1 H -*-helvetica-medium-r-normal--*-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1 HO -*-helvetica-medium-o-normal--*-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1 HB -*-helvetica-bold-r-normal--*-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1 HF -*-helvetica-bold-o-normal--*-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1 N -*-new century schoolbook-medium-r-normal--*-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1 NI -*-new century schoolbook-medium-i-normal--*-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1 NB -*-new century schoolbook-bold-r-normal--*-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1 NF -*-new century schoolbook-bold-i-normal--*-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1 A -*-charter-medium-r-normal--*-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1 AI -*-charter-medium-i-normal--*-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1 AB -*-charter-bold-r-normal--*-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1 AF -*-charter-bold-i-normal--*-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1 S -*-symbol-medium-r-normal--*-*-*-*-*-*-adobe-fontspecific S2 -*-symbol-medium-r-normal--*-*-*-*-*-*-adobe-fontspecific USING XDITVIEW WITH DITROFF
You can use any ditroff output file with xditview, although files which use the fonts appropriate to the fontMap will look more accurate on the screen. On servers which support scaled fonts, all requested font sizes will be accurately reflected on the screen; for servers which do not support scaled xditview will use the closest font from the same family.
