wordview

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.
