odfhighlight

ODFHIGHLIGHT(1p)					User Contributed Perl Documentation					  ODFHIGHLIGHT(1p)

NAME

       odfhighlight - search, replace and highlight text in a document

SYNOPSIS

       odfhighlight "source.odt" "search string" -r "replacement" -o "target.odt"

       replaces "search string" by "replacement" in the file "source.odt", highlights each replacement with a yellow (default) backgound, then
       writes the resulting document as "target.odt"

       odfhighlight "myfile.odt" "search string" -color "green"

       highlights each occurrence of "search string" in "myfile.odt" with a green background color, without changing the text (without "-o"
       option, the changes apply to "myfile.odt"

ARGUMENTS AND OPTIONS

   Default behaviour
       With the "minimal" command line, with only a filename and a string as arguments, each matching string is highlighted with a yellow
       background and represented with the "Standard" style.

   Options
	       -e --encoding "xxxxxx"

		       character set to use, if different from the default

	       -r --replacement "new string"

		       "new string" is used as a replacement for "search string"

	       -c --color "code"

		       an RGB color code, expressed either as the concatenation of
		       3 comma-separated decimal values (each one in the range
		       0..255, ex: "72,61,139" for a dark slate blue), or a 6-digit
		       hexadecimal number, preceded by a "#" (ex: #00ff00 for green)
		       or, if a colormap is available and known in your
		       OpenOffice::OODoc installation, a symbolic color name (ex:
		       "sky blue")

	       -s --stylename "name"

		       the name of the color style (default: "MyHighlight"); the
		       user must provide a style name that is not already in use
		       in the document

	       -p --property "property=value"

		       This option can be repeated; each occurrence gives an
		       additional property for the highlight style (font name, size,
		       foreground color, ...). For example, with the combination of
		       -p 'fo:color=#ff0000' and -p 'fo:font-size=18pt', the
		       highlighted text will be made of 18pt-sized, red characters.
		       In order to master these options, you should have some
		       knowledge of the Form Objects (FO) vocabulary that is used
		       in the OpenDocument specification.

	       -o --output "filename"
	       -t --target "filename"

		       an alternative filename to save the modified document, when
		       the source document must remain unchanged
