wordview(1) General Commands Manual wordview(1) NAME
wordview - displays text contained in MS-Word file in X window SYNOPSIS
wordview [ filename] DESCRIPTION
wordview is simple GUI wrapper around catdoc(1) which allows to browse through word file interactively. It doesn't allow to edit file, but allows to save plain text representation (or version with some TeX commands) into the file. If for some reason catdoc doesn't recognize file encoding properly, wordview allows to specify encoding interactively. OPTIONS
wordview supports standard X options, supported by wish(1) X RESOURCES
Following X resources can be used to customize wordviewlook: Wordview.Text.Background background color for main window Wordview.Text.Foreground Foreground color for main window Wordview.Text.selectBackground Background color of selected text Wordview.Text.selectForeground Foreground color of selected text Wordview.Text.Font Font to display text. We recommend to use fixed-width font, such as Courier, because catdoc(1) is intended to convert Word into text. Either XLFD font names or Tk-style font specifications like {Courier 12pt} can be used for specifying font. If you use XLFD font names, usage of unicode (iso10646-1) fonts is recommended. Wordview.Text.findMode How to search text. This option can have value either exact or regexp and specifies whether text is searched for exact match or for regular expression by default. This behavior can be toggled interactively via checkbox in the search dialog. Wordview.Text.findCase This boolean option controls whether search is case-sensitive. Default is no. Wordview.Menu.highlightBackground Background color for highlighted menu item Wordview.Menu.highlightThickness Wordview.Menu.activeBackground Background color of active menu item. Wordview.Menu.activeBorderWidth Width (in pixels) of border around highlighted menu item. Default is 0, which differs from Tk global default. See options(n) for more details. A lot of other resource options which affect behavoir of standard Tk widgets can affect wordview. See Tcl/Tk manual pages for more informa- tion. SEE ALSO

dxcardfiler(1X) dxcardfiler(1X) Name dxcardfiler - DECwindows interface to the cardfiler Syntax dxcardfiler [ options ] Description The dxcardfiler command displays an Index window that provides access to an electronic version of a set of 3x5 index cards. You can add, delete, rename, duplicate, save, read, search, and print these cards. By organizing your index cards into sets, called card files, you can keep one group of cards separate from another group. The cards, which can hold 4000 characters of text and 64K bits of DDIF image (for example dxpaint output), will appear on your screen to the right of the Index window. In addition, the dxcardfiler Index window contains a Help menu that, when selected, displays an appropriate help message. Options -bd color Specifies the color of the window's border (color displays only). The default is specified by means of the Session Manager's Customize Window dialog box. -bg color Specifies the color of the window's background (color displays only). The default is specified by means of the Session Manager's Customize Window dialog box. -d dispname Specifies the display screen on which dxcardfiler displays its window. If the display option is not specified, dxcard- filer uses the display screen specified by your DISPLAY environment variable. The display option has the format host- name:number. Using two colons (::) instead of one (:) indicates that DECnet is to be used for transport. The default is :0. For more information, see -display dispname This option is the same as the -d option. -fg color Specifies the color of the text (color displays only). The default is black. -fn font Specifies the font for all windows except the index list box. The default font is menu12. The default is 6x10. -geometry Specifies the width, length, and location of the dxcardfiler window. If the geometry option is not specified, dxcard- filer uses default values. The geometry option has the format [widthxlength][{+-}x{+-}y]. For more information about the screen coordinate system, see Index Window The index window lists the names of the current cards (you can open new or previously selected cards by choosing Open... from the File menu). To select a card, place the pointer on the name of the card and click MB1 (the left button unless you have redefined it). You can also search for specific cards by selecting the card window and choosing the search menu. Once you select a card, you can manipulate it by using the items contained in the Card window menus. Th index window contains the following menus: File Search Card File Menu The File menu contains the following items: Open... Opens an existing card file that you specify. If the specified card file does not exist, dxcardfiler asks if you want to open a new database. If you confirm, dxcardfiler opens a new Index window. You can begin adding cards. If you try to open a card file without first saving any changes to a previously opened file, a dialog box appears asking you whether you want to save your changes. Merge... Merges the contents of the current card file with another, resulting in a card file that combines and sorts the contents of both files. The card file whose contents are merged with the current card file remains unchanged. Save Saves the current card file. If a name has been specified previously, dxcardfiler uses that name. If a name has not been specified previously, dxcardfiler prompts for a new name. Save As... Saves the current card file under a name that you specify. Print Prints a representation of all cards in the index to the default printer. You can change the default printer by means of the Print... option. Print... Prints the current card file to a device you specify. Save Geometry Saves the cardfiler's size and position, to use the next time you run the cardfiler. Use System Settings Restores the use of system defaults for the cardfiler's size and position. Quit Closes the dxcardfiler window. If you have not saved any changes or additions to the current file, a dialog box appears asking whether you want to save your changes. Search Menu The Search menu contains the following items: Search Index... Searches the index topics for a text string. Because dxcardfiler treats spaces as text, you can search for two or more words. A dialog box appears that prompts for the text string. Then, dxcardfiler searches the topics of all index cards in the file and displays the first card in your file containing the text string. Search Card... Searches the contents of each card in the file for a text string. A dialog box appears that prompts for the text string. Then, dxcardfiler searches all index cards in the file and displays the first card in your file containing the text string. Find Next Searches for the next occurrence of the searched for string. Card Menu The Card menu contains the following item: Create Card... Opens an empty card in a Card window and displays a dialog box that prompts for the card name. After you type the card name, type any information belonging on the index card in the Card window.

X Defaults The dxcardfiler application uses the values in the .Xdefaults file when you logged in and uses the appropriate resource specification to customize the appearance of the dxcardfiler window. The format for a resource specification in the .Xdefaults file is: [name*]resource: value name Specifies the application name or the name string that restricts the resource assignment to that application or to a component of an application. If this argument is not specified, the resource assignment is globally available to all X applications. resource Specifies the resource. value Specifies the value that is to be assigned to the resource. Because each toolkit-based application can consist of a combination of widgets (for example, push buttons and a scroll bar), you can form the name string by adding widget class and name identifiers to the string. For further information about adding class and name identi- fiers, see For dxcardfiler, the available class identifiers are: CardFiler cardmainwindow MenuBar indexmainwindow VList The resources available for dxcardfiler are listed in Each specification included in the .Xdefaults file for the translations resource modifies a key setting for the editor that dxcardfiler uses.
