NAME
coolman-3.17.5 - Man page reader for the X Window System based
on the Coolwidget library.
USAGE
coolman
[options] [-c <man-command>] [<man-page>]
DESCRIPTION
This man page reader just views the output of the man system command,
with a nice point and click, drag and drop, GUI.
OPTIONS
-d, -display <display>
The X server and display you would like to display to.
-f, -fn, -font <font-name>
The font you would like to use.
-dnd-old
Use dnd version 0 instead of version 1. Many apps that support Dnd may
only support the older version. Use this option to force compatability.
-c, -cmd, --command <man-command>
This specifies the shell command to use to run man. The
%m
is replaced with
the name of the man page. The default is
man -a %m,
where
-a
specifies
all
man pages: the
-a
option may not be supported on some systems. Note that you can use
coolman 'cat %m' <file-name>
to use coolman to just view a regular file.
-h, -H, -?, --help
Print out commandline options summary.
-V, -v, --version
Print out version number.
USAGE
If
Coolman
is envoked without arguments, it requests a man page on startup. Typical usage
of
Coolman
would be to open one man page and then double click on key words or words in
the
SEE ALSO
sections of man pages. This will cause
Coolman
to run
man
with the word that was double-clicked on. This will create a list of opened
man pages, which can be browsed with the
Previous
and
Next
buttons. You can search through the text
by pressing
F7
and entering your search string - searching begins from the second line in the
window, and is transparent to nroff formatting. To insert selected text from
other applications into an input line, use
Shift-Insert.
You can also
drag
text from the man page by
first highlighting the text with the mouse, and then dragging from within the highlighted text.
Note that
Drag and drop
may not work if your Dnd version is incompatible. Envoke
Coolman
with
-dnd-old
to force compatability.
Finally,
function key
usage is analogous to
Cooledit,
eg
F10
exits.
COLORS
You can change the colors of
coolman
from
cooledit's
configuration file:
~/cedit/.cooledit.ini.
The lines of interest would look like this by default:
Cooledit
creates this file when it exits, but you can create a file that looks
just like this if you don't have
cooledit.
The numbers represent a 3x3x3 RGB matrix, eg. black is 0, white is 26
and, say, red is 18.
