The professional typesetting program TeX is the product of more than ten years of work of Donald E. Knuth, professor at Stanford University, California. What are the pros and cons of using TeX? If you want to create documents that distinguish themselves by a flippy design including flashy graphics, you are better advised to look out for a desktop publishing program. But if you intend to create well structured texts, beautiful letters, or scientific publications, TeX is the state of the art. A great disadvantage has prevented so far the spreading of TeX: It is very complicated. You rather have to program a text than to write it. This is exactly where TPP starts to work. Now a document can be created as follows: · First, you load a form sheet (e. g. a letter form sheet). Within this form sheet several keywords are located, which dertermine the document's structure. WYSIWYGFootnoteWhat You See Is What You GetEnd is almost totally renounced, due to the fact that you only have to care for the proper content and not for the automatically generated design of your document. · After having filled out the form sheet, the text is parsed and compiled. First, TPP creates a TeX\TeX End-file and after that TeX\TeX\ End compiles this file. · The final product of these two compilations is a DVI (DeViceIndependant)-file, which you are then able to preview or print. So the great disadvantage of TeX has hopefully been reduced to a minimum.

Rep. of Germany Net addresses InterNet: steppler@pool.informatik.rwth-aachen.de FidoNet: Martin Steppler @ 2:242/7.12 TeXt Plus Professional was developed on an Amiga 3000 with 10 MB RAM, a 240 MB harddisk, and a HP DeskJet 500 using the Aztec C 5.2a compiler. @EndNode @Node Acknowledgements "TPP/Acknowledgements" Besides Donald Knuth and Leslie Lamport I would like to thank in particular Georg Hessmann (PasTeX), Nico François (reqtools.library, powerpacker.library), Christian Rank (NICETeX\TeX End), Rainer Sengerling (dinbrief.sty) and my beta-testers Jens Aperdannier, Markus Baumeister, Stephan Kohler, Dirk Ludwig, Gregor Mauer, Johannes Maybaum, Karl Skibinski and Martin Ziemer. @EndNode @Node Installation "TPP/Installation" In order to run TPP correctly in cooperation with PasTeX, you need: · AmigaOS 2.04 (V37 or higher) · at least 2 MB RAM · at least 10 MB harddisk space · PasTeX V1.3 or higher incl. NICETeX. The distribution of PasTeX contains the macro package NICETeX. · LaTeX (25th March 1992). The files needed by TPP are part of the distribution. Double clicking the icon of the installation script is all you have to do to install TPP. PasTeX must have been installed before the installation of TPP. After a successful installation you have to add the following line to your S:Startup-Seqeunce or S:User-Startup: Assign TPP: After that you can start to work with TPP right away. TPP can be invoked from either Workbench by double clicking the respective icon or from CLI. CLI usage is as follows: TPP [-nd] [-i] [-cconfiguration-file] [file1] [file2] ... [file10] If '-nd' (no detach) was specified, TPP does not detach itself from the invoking CLI. '-nd' must, if specified, be the first of all arguments. If the '-i'-switch is set, TPP only opens iconified window(s) on the workbench. If not, a screen and all windows are opened. The first one will not be iconified. If you click into an iconified window for the first time, the respective file is loaded. With the '-c' switch you can specify an alternate configuration file. Up to ten filenames may be passed to TPP. @EndNode @Node Menus "TPP/Menus" @{"Project" link Project} @{"Block" link Block} @{"Prefs" link Prefs} @{"Style" link Style} @{"Find" link Find} @{"TeX" link TeX} @{"Extras" link Extras} @{"Extern" link Extern} @EndNode @Node Project "TPP/Menus/Project" @{"Load" link Load} @{"Append File" link AppendFile} @{"New Window" link NewWindow} @{"Load & New Window" link LoadAndNewWindow} @{"Load Configuration" link LoadConfiguration} @{"Delete File" link DeleteFile} @{"Save" link Save} @{"Save as" link SaveAs} @{"Save & Quit" link SaveAndQuit} @{"Save Configuration" link SaveConfiguration} @{"Compile" link Compile} @{"Preview" link Preview} @{"Print" link Print} @{"Iconify" link Iconify} @{"Help" link Help} @{"About" link About} @{"Quit" link Quit} @EndNode @Node Load "TPP/Menus/Project/Load" After clicking on this menuitem a filerequester pops up, the current function of which - here: 'Load file' - is displayed in the window-titlebar. The selector is completely dynamic and asynchronous; you may change directories, select files, scroll the file list, etc., while the selector is scanning a directory. After a file has been chosen, TPP loads it and recognizes automatically if the file is a packed file (PowerPacker), or a plain ASCII-file, if it contains ANSI-control-sequences or if it is a TPP-letter (suffix: '.tpp'). TPP-letters of older versions (suffix '.txp') can still be loaded, too. Multiselection is fully supported, so if you select more than one file in the filerequester, iconified windows are opened on the TPP-screen according to the number of selected files. If you try to overwrite a modified file, a security-requester will pop up asking you to confirm your decision. The keymap equivalents of the OKAY and the STOP gadget of this and all other requesters are the Return key (OKAY) and Esc (STOP). @EndNode @Node AppendFile "TPP/Menus/Project/Append File" A file is appended to the end of the already existing file. If you want to insert a file at the cursor's current position, you've got to load a block. (see also @{"Load Block" link LoadBlock}). @EndNode @Node NewWindow "TPP/Menus/Project/New Window" If sufficient memory is available, a new window is opened. The tabulators, the text-width etc. of the old window are used in the new one, too. TextPlus is able to handle up to 10 windows at the same time. @EndNode @Node LoadAndNewWindow "TPP/Menus/Project/Load & New Window" The comands of the items 'Load' (see also @{"Load" link Load}) and 'New Window' (see also @{"New Window" link NewWindow}) are executed. @EndNode @Node LoadConfiguration "TPP/Menus/Project/Load Configuration" If you want to reset the settings of TPP to those defined in a configuration-file, you only have to choose this menuitem. @EndNode @Node DeleteFile "TPP/Menus/Project/Delete File" The current file is deleted in memory. @EndNode @Node Save "TPP/Menus/Project/Save" The current file is saved under its current filename. The letter-mode determines the format of the saved file. If it is set to ASCii, a plain ASCII-file without any control-sequence is saved, if it is set to ANSi, control-sequences for changes in style or color are saved with the file according to the ANSI-standard. Such files can be loaded by every ANSI- compatible editor or text-display program, e.g. 'MuchMore'. If the letter- mode is set to LETter, the tabulators, the text-width etc. are saved with the file. The suffix '.tpp' is added to such files. @EndNode @Node SaveAs "TPP/Menus/Project/Save As" After a filename has been chosen, it is saved as described above (@{"Save" link Save}. @EndNode @Node SaveAndQuit "TPP/Menus/Project/Save & Quit" The commands of the items 'Save' (see also @{"Save" link Save}) and 'Quit' (see also @{"Quit" link Quit}) are carried out. @EndNode @Node SaveConfiguration "TPP/Menus/Project/Save Configuration" The global settings of TPP are saved to a configuration-file. @EndNode @Node Compile "TPP/Menus/Project/Compile" The gadgets of the compile window have the following meaning: If 'Parse' is selected, the internal compiler of TPP translates the text of the active window. After that, or if 'Parse' has not been selected, the TeX-compiler is invoked according to the TeX-paths definitions (see also @{"Tex-Paths" link TeXPaths}). When the internal compiler of TPP is invoked, the document-style (letter, article or book) is deduced from the keyword at the beginning of the text. Furthermore the font-height of the document can be defined. Otherwise the user must explicitly define the format. The compilation can be aborted by pressing Ctrl-C in the log-window. If no log- window was opened, you have to wait until the compiler terminates. If the switch 'Mailmerge' is set, data from a mailmerge-database (see also @{"Mailmerge" link Mailmerge}) is inserted into the text at compile time. @EndNode @Node Preview "TPP/Menus/Project/Preview" Georg Hessmann's previewer 'ShowDVI' is invoked. If you wish, the compiler is run before the ShowDVI is invoked. All the other switches have the same meaning as described under @{"Print" link Print}. If ShowDVI is already running in the background, the ARexx-script 'rexx:UpdateShowDVI.tpl' is invoked. @EndNode @Node Print "TPP/Menus/Project/Print" The miscellaneous gadgets have the following meaning: From, To Page From and to which page is to be printed? Copies How often should the document be printed? Type Are only pages with even or odd numbers to be printed, or should TPP not distinguish between odd and even pages? HOffset, VOffset Set the horizontal and vertical offset of the print-out. SpecialHost Is SpecialHost to be invoked before the printing starts? If the text to be printed contains IFF-graphics, this switch must be set. SpecialHost calculates the new dimensions of the graphics for DVIprint (see also @{"Graphics" link graphics}). Output Is the document to be printed or should the output be redirected to a file? Furthermore, the output can be send to an IFF- or a postscript-file. For Postscript output you need DVIPS in addition to PasTeX. Async New since 4.10. With the help of this switch you can decide whether you intend to print asynchronously, i.e. in the background, or not. When printing asynchronously, you can only presume working with TPP after the print-out has been finished. The Async-gadget is ignored, if the user seleceted the mailmerge option or multiple copies (number of copies >= 2). When printing asynchronously, the print-out cannot be canceled from within the TPP- environment. Date New since 4.10. If you know, how the Unix-utility 'Make' works, then you already know the meaning of this gadget. Why should you use this switch? Normally, you print out a text not before you have previewed it. If you do not change the settings of the print-requester, after having finished previewing, the whole text will once again be compiled by TPP and TeX. In case of long text-files, this can lead to annoying waiting periods. In order to prevent this you could switch off compiling and parsing. But you would have to switch compiling and parsing on again, before the next print-out/previewing. A more elegant method takes into account the dates of creation of all files that are part of the compiling-printing/previewing- process: If the file of the active window has been modified ('(modified)' appears in the window-titlebar), it is saved before the compilations takes place. Depending on the date entries of the TPP-file (suffix '.tpp') and the TeX-file (suffix '.tex') TPP compiles the TPP-file, if it is the younger one or if the TeX-file does not exist at all. Following the same scheme the TeX- compiler is invoked, if the TeX-file is younger than the dvifile (suffix '.dvi'). After this either printing or previewing follows. If the dvifile is younger than the TPP-file and the TeX-file, parsing and compiling are skipped and printing or previewing is started immediately. TPP behaves as described above, if the date- gadget is switched on. Options Since 4.10 you can directly send a file to the printer.device, in order to print it out using the printer-driver you set with the help of the respective prefs-program. Of course, you do not need PasTeX for this. Depending on the setting of the gadget 'Output' a requester pops up. It contains the following gadgets, if 'Output' is not set to 'PRT:'. Printer After scanning the configuration-file 'TeX:config/DVIprint.printers', the available printer- drivers are displayed. If you want to use the Preferences printer-driver, you have to select the driver 'generic'. FontMem What size shall the font memory of ShowDVI/DVIprint have? Density If you print via a Preferences driver, the quality of the print-out is normally set in Preferences. This option provides a way to override the preferences- setting (density). FontDir In which additonal directory should font-libraries and pk-fonts be searched for? Resolution Sets the resolution of the bitmap, if the output is redirected to an IFF-file. The resolution can be defined in two ways: You either specify a number or the sequence number - slash - number. In the first case the horizontal and the vertical resolution are set at the same time. In the second case the first number is interpreted as the horizontal resolution and the second as the vertical resolution, e.g. 120/72. ShowDVI-Log Is ShowDVI to create a logfile and what is the name of it? DVIprint-Log Is DVIprint to create a logfile and what is the name of it? Optimize Should the print-out be optimized? This may enhance the speed of your printer. Fast Sets a flag in the printer.device. When set, the speed of the parallel port is increased significantly. If you do not print via the printer.device, then this switch is of no interest for you. Draft Sets the quality of the print-out. If you want to print a document just to see what comes out of the printer, this switch might be useful, because the minor quality of the print-out plays an inferior role. Unidirect. Is the printer to print uni- or bidirectionally? Bidirectional printing might be faster, but take into account that the quality of the print-out worsens in most of the times. Landscape The print-out is rotated by 90 degrees. No FormFeed Is the output of a form-feed to be suppressed at the end of the last page? Reverse The pages are printed in reverse order. Preload All fonts are loaded into memory at the beginning of the print-out, and not when they are needed. Statistic A more detailed logfile is created. If the gadget 'Output' is set to 'PRT:', the text of the active window is sent to the printer.device. The following gadgets of the options- requester control the print-out: Pitch You can select one of four pitches. Do not conceive the given pitches as unchangeable. Escape-sequences may be changed at any time and can be saved along with the configuration. The labels 'NLQ', 'Normal', 'Elite', and 'Condensed' are only used as memo-strings and do not affect the print-out. It has to be pointed out, that you only may use escape-sequences which are understood by the printer.device. These are not nescessarily identical to those mentioned in your printer manual. The escape- sequences of the printer.device are listed in the appendix. Unfortunately, the printer.device does not support all facilities a plenty of printers offer. What has to be done, if you want to print in a pitch the printer.device does not support? Fortunately, you can send raw, i.e. unprocessed, data via the printer.device to your printer. This is done by the escape-sequence '27/91/n/34/114', where n is the number of raw data. Let's say your printer manual states that the sequence '27/40/115/50/48/72/27/40/115/52/49/48/49/ 84' switches on printing in courier (20cpi). The number of raw data is 14. This is why you have to send '49/52' as n to your printer, because 49 is the ASCII-code of 1 and 52 the one of 4. The total sequence reads now: '27/91/49/52/34/114/27/40/115/50/48/72/27/40/115/52/49/ 48/49/84'. This sequence was found in the printer manual of the HP DeskJet 500. Init String If you want to send some data to the printer before the print-out, you can enter it here. Left/Right The left and the right margin are set according to the Margin content of these gadgets. Pagenumbering All pages are numbered automatically during the print- out. Linenumbering Every line is numbered automatically during the print- out. Proportional The file is printed with a proportional character set. FormFeed If set, then the output of a form-feed is not suppressed at the end of the last page. Color 1-4 TPP is not a WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) word On/Off processor. If you want to use other fonts, pitches etc., you have to mark the respective text in one of the four available colors. When encountering the beginning or the end of such a text during the print-out, TPP sends either the on- or off-sequence of the respective color to the printer.device. You may only use sequences, the printer.device understands, as mentioned in subsection 'Pitch'. Printing can be aborted by pressing Ctrl-C in the log-window. @EndNode @Node Iconify "TPP/Menus/Project/Iconify" The current window is iconified and opened on either the Workbench or the TPP-screen. The latter takes place if there is at least one uniconified window besides the current one left over on the TPP-screen. Closing down the TPP-screen is very useful for memory hungry multitaskers, because 42 KB of memory are returned to the system. Clicking the menu-button uniconifies the active window. If the TPP-screen is closed, you can also return to it by pressing the hotkey. Default values are Left + Right Amiga and Y (see also @{"Hotkey" link Hotkey}). @EndNode @Node Hilfe "TPP/Menus/Project/Help" If AmigaGuide is installed and the documentation of TPP is located within the AmigaGuide search-path, online hypertext-documentation is available on a single keystroke. Otherwise the keymap of TPP is displayed. @EndNode @Node About "TPP/Menus/Project/About" Informations about the author. @EndNode @Node Ende "TPP/Menus/Project/Quit" The active window is closed and, if this window was the last open one, TPP quits. If the text of the active window has been modified in any way, a security requester pops up and asks the user to confirm his decision. @EndNode @Node Block "TPP/Menus/Block" @{"Mark" link Mark} @{"Copy" link Copy} @{"Move" link Move} @{"Paste" link Paste} @{"Delete" link Delte} @{"Load" link LoadBlock} @{"Save" link SaveBlock} @{"Delte Mark" link DeleteMark} @{"Copy to TmpFile" link CopyToTmpFile} @EndNode @Node Mark "TPP/Menus/Block/Mark" Depending on the mark-mode a block can be marked LINewise, WORdwise or BLocKwise. The marked characters are displayed in reversed colors. The state of the block-mode, which can be left by invoking 'Delete marks' or 'Delete block', is indicated by the button 'BLO' above the ruler. A block can also be marked by moving the mouse while holding down the left mouse button. @EndNode @Node Copy "TPP/Menus/Block/Copy" The marked block is inserted into the text at the cursor's current position. You can also copy a block by doubleclicking the left mouse button. @EndNode @Node Move "TPP/Menus/Block/Move" The marked block is moved to the cursor's current position. (mouse equivalent: ctrl-doubleclick) @EndNode @Node Paste "TPP/Menus/Block/Paste" The marked block is pasted to the cursor's current position. The difference between 'Copy' and 'Paste' is that 'Copy' inserts the block into the text and 'Paste' pastes over the text. @EndNode @Node Delete "TPP/Menus/Block/Delete" The marked block is deleted. (shift-doubleclick) @EndNode @Node LoadBlock "TPP/Menus/Block/Load" A normal file is inserted into the text at the current position of the cursor. The way the file is inserted depends on the mark-mode. @EndNode @Node SaveBlock "TPP/Menus/Block/SaveBlock" The marked block is saved to disk. @EndNode @Node DeleteMark "TPP/Menus/Block/Delete Mark" The block markers are deleted for the current window. (alt-doubleclick) @EndNode @Node CopyToTmpFile "TPP/Menus/Block/Copy To TmpFile" If a block is marked, it is saved to disk. The name of this block is set in Prefs/Prefs. If no block is marked 'TP.tmp' is loaded and inserted into the text depending on the mark-mode. This is an easy way to exchange blocks between windows. @EndNode @Node Prefs "TPP/Menus/Prefs" @{"Prefs" link PrefsMenuItem} @{"Screen" link Screen} @{"Colors" link Colors} @{"Font" link Font} @{"F-Keys" link FKeys} @{"Extern-Menu" link ExternMenu} @{"TeX-Paths" link TeXPaths} @{"Right Edge" link RightEdge} @{"Left Edge" link LeftEdge} @{"Indent Block" link IndentBlock} @{"Page Length" link PageLength} @{"Auto-Save" link AutoSave} @EndNode @Node PrefsMenuItem "TPP/Menus/Prefs/Prefs" The meaning of the gadgets is as follows: Write The insert-mode is either switched on or off. If switched on, it is indicated by the word 'INS' above the ruler. Characters are inserted in the already existing text and do not overwrite the text. Format The letter-mode is set to LETter, ANSi, or ASCii. Its only purpose is to determine how a file is to be saved. (see also @{"Save" link Save}). Mark Mode You can choose whether you want to mark blocks WORdwise, LINewise or BLocKwise. (see also @{"Mark" link Mark}). Auto-Div-Mode TPP was originally designed to be a German word- processor. Due to the occurrence of ultra-long words in German a function called Auto-Div which divides ultra- long words in accordance with German grammar has been provided in order to decrease the number of ultra-long gaps in the text. Auto-Div divides English words in accordance with German grammar, too. This is why you better keep it switched off. If Auto-Div is switched on and if a block is marked and then formatted (left/right-aligned, centered, justification), words which are too long for the respective line are divided in order to avoid large gaps. Auto-Div is not perfect. This is why you should always check the division. Words divided by TPP end with this dash '­' (ASCII 173) and only this dash is accepted by TPP as indicator for a division in case of reformatting. Due to the fact that TeX also hyphenates automatically, this function is only interesting, if you process texts that are not going to be run through the TeX compiler. Backup If switched on, TPP checks the disk for the same filename you want to save. Providing the file exists, the suffix '.bak' is added to this file in order to protect it from being overwritten. Save Icon Should TPP attach an icon to the file when saving? Space Tabs When saving eight spaces are replaced by one tab. You can dramatically reduce the size of your file with this option. Smart When hitting return the cursor is either moved to the first column of the following line (off) or under the beginning of the preceding line (on). Tmp-File Name of the temporary file, that is used by block operations. (see also @{"Copy To TmpFile" link CopyToTmpFile}). FReq-Path Which path is to be the default path of the file- requester of TPP? A single dot ('.') means, that the current directory of the invoking process is to be used. FReq-Pattern What pattern shall be used as a filter in the file- requester? Hotkey Which hotkeys should reopen iconified windows? (see also @{"Iconify" link Iconify}) The syntax of a hotkey is as follows: [ [...]] Qualifiers alt both Alt keys ralt right Alt key lalt left Alt key shift both Shift keys rshift right Shift key lshift left Shift key capslock Caps Lock key rcommand right Amiga key lcommand left Amiga-key control Control key numericpad enables the use of a key of the numeric pad Keys a .. z, 0 .. 9, etc. normal keys f1 .. f10 function keys up, down, left, right Cursor keys help Help key del Delete key return Return key enter Enter key (must be combined with 'numericpad') backspace Backspace key esc Escape key space Space key comma Comma key upstroke Upstroke key Examples lcommand rcommand y lalt ralt enter alt x Clock With the help of the switches 'Clock', 'Time', 'Date', 'Memory' and 'Reverse' you are able to define the design of the clock. @EndNode @Node Screen "TPP/Menus/Prefs/Screen" Choose your favorite monitor type and the desired resolution of your screen. @EndNode @Node Colors "TPP/Menus/Prefs/Colors" The colors of the screen are to be set to which values? @EndNode @Node Font "TPP/Menus/Prefs/Font" This function enables you to define the font of the text-field. This font has no meaning for the print-out. @EndNode @Node FKeys "TPP/Menus/Prefs/F-Keys" Up to 20 function-keys can be mapped to commands. The mapping of commands follows the scheme 'key, command, argument'. Possible commands are the TPP-ARexx-commands or the name of an ARexx- macro. The argument(s) will automatically be sent to either the command or the macro. If you are in the command-line (above the ruler), function-keys won't be executed, but displayed in the command-line. This is an easy way to make changes before executing a function-key. Examples tpl/SDVIToFront.tpl execute bin:PowerPacker @EndNode @Node ExternMenu "TPP/Menus/Prefs/Extern-Menu" Up to 15 items may be added to the 'Extern' menu. As described in subsection 'F-Keys' (see also @{"F-Keys" link FKeys}), the action mapped to an item can either be a TPP-ARexx command or an ARexx-macro. It is very effective to combine the design of the 'Extern' menu with the mapping of the function keys. In the configuratin files that are distributed with TPP respective mappings are predefined. As an example I would like to mention the macro 'SDVI to Front'. This macro switches the previewer into the foreground, if it is already running in the background. If you map 'F10' in the ShowDVI- configuration analogously to the macro 'TPPToFront.sd' (also part of the TPP- package), you can read a document using the previewer and then switch back to TPP to correct the typing-errors you found without having to use the mouse. @EndNode @Node TeXPaths "TPP/Menus/Prefs/TeX-Paths" Where are all the needed TeX binaries located? If PasTeX End is installed correctly, you do not have to change anything here. For every document-type TPP provides two alternatives to invoke the compiler; this was implemented in order to easily, for example, switch from the German LaTeX Ende version to the American one when compiling a letter. If a document is to be compiled by TPP's internal compiler, TPP acts as follows: First, the selected table of special characters is loaded. Every character of the respective document is checked wether it is included in the table, i. e. wether it has to be translated into TeX-specific syntax. Furthermore, an '.parse'-file is read in before the compilation. The instructions specified in this file define the main frame of the '.tex'-file that is created by TPP. The '.parse'-files may freely be changed while, of course, obeying to the rules stated in the files in more detail. Therefore the macros and TeX-styles which are part of the TPP distribution are not meant to be unchangeable but to be an invitation to create your own macros and to design your own documents. If you want to change the '.parse'-files, you should at least be a TeXpert, to whom the TeXbook [1] is not unknown. The normal 'power-user' should fully be satisfied by the included macros. @EndNode @Node RightEdge "TPP/Menus/Prefs/RightEdge" The right edge must range between 10 and 255. If a block has been marked, it is formatted according to the new width. Reformatting requires the mark- mode to be set to LINewise. @EndNode @Node LeftEdge "TPP/Menus/Prefs/Left Edge" The left edge must range between 1 and 145. If a block has been marked, it is formatted according to the new left edge, provided the mark-mode is set to LINewise. @EndNode @Node IndentBlock "TPP/Menus/Prefs/Indent Block" If a block is formatted, its first line is indented automatically by the number of columns entered into the 'Indent Block' integer gadget. The indentation value must range between 0 and the half of the text-width. @EndNode @Node PageLength "TPP/Menus/Prefs/Page Length" The page length must range within 10 and 255. @EndNode @Node AutoSave "TPP/Menus/Prefs/Auto-Save" Whenever the time interval elapses (0 to 60 minutes, 0 = OFF), the respective file is saved automatically under its current name. If Auto-Save is switched on, it is displayed above the ruler (highlighted 'ASA'). Auto-Save might be switched on in every window using different time intervals. Both Auto-Save and the clock need the TeXtPlus-Handler in order to work properly. @EndNode @Node Style "TPP/Menus/Style" @{"Style" link StyleMenuItem @{"Justify" link Justify} @{"Colors" link Colors} @EndNode @Node StyleMenuItem "TPP/Menus/Style/Style" You can set the style to either normal, underlined, bold or italic. If a block has been marked, it is displayed in the new style. @EndNode @Node Justify "TPP/Menus/Style/Justify" The current line is formatted according to the new alignment, or if a block has been marked, the block is formatted provided that the mark-mode is set to LINewise. All comands of this submenu have no effect on the printout. @EndNode @Node Colors "TPP/Menus/Style/Colors" The drawing color is set to type 1, 2, 3, 4 or normal. If a block has been marked, it is displayed in the new color. Color 1, 2 and 3 have a special meaning: Color one is reserved for keywords only, whereas text marked in color 2 appears in the print-out in typewriter-style. Text marked in color 3 yields to a slanted print-out. @EndNode @Node Find "TPP/Menus/Find" @{"Find" link FindMenuItem} @{"Replace" link Replace} @EndNode @Node FindMenuItem "TPP/Menus/Find/Find" After the search pattern has been entered, TPP starts to search for it starting from the cursor's current position. If TPP finds the search string, the cursor is placed at the beginning of the respective word. Next and Prev cause TPP to search for the next/previous occurrence of the search pattern. If the casesensitive switch is on, a string is only found if it exactly matches the search pattern, e.g. if the search string is 'Gargleblaster', the string 'Gargleblaster' is found, but 'gargleblaster' is not. @EndNode @Node Replace "TPP/Menus/Replace/Replace" If a string matches the search pattern, the user is asked whether he wants to replace it by the replace string or not. If 'Continuous' is switched on, TPP continues replacing until the end of the file. Next and Prev cause TPP to find next/previous occurrence of the search pattern and replace it by the replace pattern. @EndNode @Node TeX "TPP/Menus/TeX" @{"Letter" link Letter} @{"Book" link Book} @{"Global" link Global} @{"LaTeX" link LaTeX} @{"User" link User} @{"Mailmerge" link Mailmerge} @{"MM-Mark" link MM-Mark} @{"Table" link Table} @{"Graphics" link Graphics} @EndNode @Node Letter "TPP/Menus/TeX/Letter" The following keywords must only be used in a letter: Letter The document to be compiled is a letter. This keyword must appear at the very beginning of a document. Businessletter The document is a businessletter. Sender The sender of the letter may contain a name and five further lines. StandardSender This is the rather boring alternative to the normal sender, but it abides by the DIN 5008 standard. Retouraddress This keyword causes two folding marks and the sender's address to be set. If you use envelopes with windows this keyword is very helpful. Address What is the addressee's name? YourRef Must only be used in business-letters: Your-Ref entry of the format-line. MyRef Must only be used in business-letters: My-Ref entry of the format-line. DirectDialing Must only be used in business-letters: The part of the telephone number that precedes your number. Telephone Must only be used in business-letters: Your phone number. Place Must only be used in business-letters: Place, where the letter is written. The date is inserted automatically (dd/mm/yyyy). Subject What is the subject of the letter? Opening One line is reserved for the opening. Closing One line is reserved for the closing. Signature Specify your signature. Enclosure What did you enclose to the letter? CarbonCopy You will also read this letter? PS The postscriptum may contain paragraphs. List This keyword specifies the beginning of a twocolumn, staggered list, like the one you are already reading. The widest key of the list must appear behind the keyword 'List', in order to tell TeX how wide the left column has to be. Normally, staggered lists are used to enumerate some terms in the left column and to explain them in the other column. This can be achieved by entering the keywords Key (*) and Item (*). After Key you must specify only one word or a short sequence of words whereas the description (Item) can be longer and may contain paragraphs. NList A special list is the numbered list. In contrast to List the width of the left column and the keyword 'Key' must not be specified, because TeX already knows the width. Numbering starts from 1. Lists are allowed to be nested up to a depth of six lists. If lists are nested on every new level the way of numbering items changes (e. g. 1. (a) i. A.). LEnd A staggerd list must end with a LEnd. Indent The following text, which may contain paragraphs, is indented a little bit. The indentation must be closed with an End. @EndNode @Node Book "TPP/Menus/TeX/Book" The following keywords must only be used in a book: Book The document to be compiled is a book. This keyword must appear at the very beginning of a document. TitlePage The keywords TitelPage, Release, Author, and Abstract define the lay-out of the title page. TitlePage allows you to specify a one line title and Release to place additional information on the title page. The Release line is a bold, centered line; this is why it must not be longer than one line. Author is reserved for the names of the author or the group of authors and may be longer than one line. Finally, you have the opportunity to write a short summary about your document and to place it as an Abstract in the lower half of the title page. Titleline If you do not want to waste a whole page for the title, you may use this keyword to specify one or more title lines, that may contain paragraphs. Section You can structure a text by using the keywords Section, SubSection, and SubSubSection. All sections are automatically numbered. Behind the sections-keywords you may specify the title of the respective section. Contents This keyword induces TeX to automatically create a table of contents of all sections. During the compilation the titles of all sections and their pagenumbers are written to a '.toc'-file. Due to this you have to compile a text two times in order to be absoutely sure you have the correct table of contents. Normally, you only have to do this when you completed your document. It is important to know that you do not have to care for the table of contents at all. Everything is done automatically. Appendix Starting from now all sections begin with a capital letter. Box The following text which may contain paragraphs is set in a box. End quits boxing. Label (*) In a longer document you cannot do without references to topics dealt with at other places but located within the same document. A place you want to refer to from somewhere else in the document is marked with the sequence 'Label name of the label End'. Usually, you want to refer to either the pagenumber ('PRef (*) name of the label End') or to the number of the respective section ('CRef (*) Name der Label End'). It is easy to understand, that doing all the references manually results in great pain, because during the creation of a document the section-numbers and even more the pagenumbers are subject of change. As described under 'Contents', you habe to compile your document two times in order to be sure that all labels are refered to correctly. FRef FRef is used to refer to a figure (see also @{"Graphics" link Graphics}) and TRef TRef to refer to a table. (see also @{"Table" link Table) List (see also @{"Letter" link Letter}) NList (see also @{"Letter" link Letter}). Here you have to specify the width of the left column. This is done by telling TeX the maximum number of ciphers to be used ('1' for max. 9, '2' for max. 99, and '3' for max. 999 items). AList The list is numbered alphanumerically (a), b), c) etc.). The width must not be specified. RList Numbering is done with small roman figures. Here, too, the width must not be specified. @EndNode @Node Global "TPP/Menus/TeX/Global" The following keywords may be used in any document (letter, article, book): Article The document to be compiled is an article. This keyword must appear at the very beginning of the document and must, of course, only appear within an article. Begin This keyword indicates the start of the document's main part. Begin must appear in every document and must be closed with a corresponding End. TeX (*) If certain TeX End instructions should be inserted unchanged into the '.tex'-file, you can accomplish this with the sequence 'TeX instructions etc. End'. Date (*) The current date with a full-length month-name is inserted into the text. Today (*) The current date in short format (dd/mm/yy) is inserted into the text. Leftaligned Normally, the whole text is justified as a block. If you wish to align several paragraphs to the left, just insert Leftaligned at the top of the paragraphs and End at the bottom. If only a single line has to be justified to the left, then you should use Left. Analogously, you get rightaligned and centered justification by using Rightaligned or Right, Centered or CenterLine. Headline With the help of this keyword you are able to define a line which appears at the top of every page. Footline applies analogously to the bottom of every page. Footnote (*) Inserting 'Footnote comment End' into the text is the way TPP provides to comment on a term with a footnote. During the compilation all footnotes are automatically numbered and are set at the bottom of the respective pages. The only important thing to know is that you do not have to care for the correct placing and numbering at all. All your work is done by inserting the footnote into the text. NewPage After this keyword the subsequent text is set on a new page. @EndNode @Node LaTeX "TPP/Menus/TeX/LaTeX" Since 4.10 TPP fully supports Leslie Lamport's macro-package LaTeX. The styles book (LBook) and article (LArticle) are now available. If a keyword may only be used in a LBook or LArticle environment, it is mentioned at the proper place. The following keywords are at your disposal: LBook The document is a LaTeX-book. This keyword must appear at the very beginning. LArticle The document is a LaTeX-article. This keyword must appear at the very beginning. TitlePage The keywords TitelPage, Author, and Date define the lay- out of the title page. TitlePage allows you to specify a multiple line title. Author is reserved for the names of the author or the group of authors and may be longer than one line. With the help of Date you can place the date of creation of the file on the titlepage. Finally, you have the opportunity to write a short summary about your document and to place it as an Abstract on the titlepage. The keyword Abstract may only be used within a LArticle environment and not within a LBook one. RawTitlePage Instead of using the LaTeX commands for arranging the titlepage, you can design it on your own behind this keyword. Contents See @{"Book" link Book}). Chapter A LaTeX-book can be divided by the following six keywords, which are enumerated in their priority: Chapter, Section, SubSection, SubSubSection, Paragraph, and SubParagraph. Normally, the title of each chapter, section or paragraph is specified directly behind the keyword. Every division- keyword creates a running number that is positioned in front of the title. Starting from the chapter down to the subsubsection all numbers and titles are added to the table of contents. Within the environment LaTeX-article the keyword Chapter may not be used. Appendix Starting from now all chapters (LBuch) - sections (LArticle) respectively - begin with a capital letter. In contrast to the environment Book the keyword End has to be specified at the end of the appendix. Label See @{"Book" link Book}). In contrast to the environment Book the keywords used for refering to sections, tables and figures are replaced by a single keyword, namely Ref. The references are written to an auxiliary file (suffix '.aux'). List See @{"Book" link Book}). NList See @{"Book" link Book}). Box See @{"Letter" link Letter}). PNumArabic From now on all pages are numbered with arabic ciphers. PNumroman switches to small roman ciphers, PNumRoman to capital roman ciphers, PNumalpha to small letters, and PNumAlpha to capital letters. Bibliography This keyword starts the definition of the bibliography, which is closed by BibEnd. Scientifical publications very often contain a bibliography, the entries of which are refered to from within the text, e.g. by numbering all entries of the bibliography and refering to the respective number. At creation time of the publication the bibliography is often subject of change. It would be quite laboriously, if the whole file had to be scanned in order to adjust the references after a change of the bibliography. TPP supports the LaTeX command set, which allows both, formatting of the bibliography and automatical adjusting of references. An entry of the bibliography is specified by BibItem and a subsequent name of the item. The following lines may be arranged according to your own wishes. Normally, an entry of a bibliography contains the name of the author, the title, the publishing company and the year of publication. An entry ends at the beginning of an ensuing entry (BibItem) or at the end of the bibliography (BibEnd). All entries are numbered starting from 1. All numbers are embraced by two brackets. The command sequence 'Cite name of the bibitem End' refers to an entry of the bibliography. The respective number embraced by two brackets is inserted into the text. In order to get correct references the respective file has to be compiled twice. Index Just like the table of contents an index can be created, too. The command sequence 'Index entry End' writes an index entry to the index file (suffix '.idx'). All these entries are sorted alphabetically by the program MakeIndex and are written to a sorted index file (suffix '.ind'). The command PrintIndex causes TeX to insert the sorted index into the text. This is normally done at the end of a file. In order to create a correct index the respective file has to be compiled twice. The argument of the Index command controls the design of the index: Page Entry iv Index Mailmerge End 3 Index ARexx!ToMouse End 7 Index ARexx!WDelLeft End 15 Index Installation|( End 17 Index Installation|) End 20 Index Block@Any text End The above index entries create the following index: ARexx, ToMouse, 3 WDelLeft, 7 Any text, 20 Installation, 15-17 Mailmerge, iv The exclamation mark produces a subentry. You may only use subdivisions down to a depth of three, i. e. there are no subsubsubentries available. Every entry is sorted independently. You can create a from-to-page-entry by appending the characters '|(' (from) and '|)' (to). If you specify an at-sign (@), the string in front of the at-sign determines the alphabetical position of the entry, while the string behind the at-sign produces the text of the entry. Depending on the table of special charactes used for parsing (e. g. TPP:parse/specchars1.parse), the character '|' eventually has to be replaced by 'TeX | End'. Further informations on MakeIndex can be found in a separate dvifile, which is part of this distribution. @EndNode @Node User "TPP/Menus/TeX/User" New since 4.10. From now on user defined keywords may be used within the text. Of course, these keywords may not be identical to already existing ones. The definition of a keyword is to be appended to the respective parse- file. The way an entry has to look alike is described within the parse- files. If a definition of a keyword expects input (), the keyword has to be accompanied by a subsequent End when used in the text. You may define an infinite number of keywords, while only the first 24 keywords can be selected via the mouse. In the file 'TPP:parse/lbook.parse' you can find some examples of user defined keywords. @EndNode @Node Mailmerge "TPP/Menus/TeX/Mailmerge" TPP's mailmerge function is very useful if you want to write letters that only differ in the address and the opening. Each of the 10 mailmerge marks can be inserted into the text as often as you like (see also MM-Mark). During the print-out these mailmerge-marks are replaced by data read in from a separate mailmerge file. Due to the fact that lots of data processors save their data bases in different formats, you can define the format by yourself. If the separator 'Backslash' ('Komma') is selected, this means that the length of every data set is one line and that every datum is separated form the next one by a backslash '\' (comma ','). Excerpt from a mailmerge file: Meyer\James\12 Broadway\Paris, Tennessee Miller\Arthur\325 Randall Drive\Paris, Texas Robinson\Anthony\15 Willowfield Crescent\Seattle, Washington Smith\Michael\48 Parkway\Denver, Colorado Taylor\John\77 Sunset Strip\Beverly Hills, California etc. If a separator different to those mentioned above are used in your mailmerge file, you can define the separator by yourself, too. The separator may also consist of a string of characters. If 'Return' was selected, every line contains one datum. This is why every data set is ten lines long. The memo-strings are only meant to help you remember the meaning of a datum within a data set. The pattern-strings define which data sets should not be filtered out. A data set is not filtered out, if every datum of a data set matches its pattern. Following wildcards are available: ? Matches a single character. # Matches the following expression 0 or more times. (ab|cd) Matches any one of the items seperated by '|'. ~ Negates the following expression. It matches all strings that do not match the expression (e. g. ~(foo) matches all stirngs that are not exactly "foo"). [abc] Character class: matches any of the characters in the class. [~abc] Character class: matches any of the characters not in the class. [a-z] Character range (only within character classes). % Matches 0 characters always (useful in "(foo|bar|%"). * Synonym for "#?". If the first pattern-string was set to 'M*', the data sets 'Meyer\...' and 'Miller\...' of the above mailmerge file were not filtered out. The name of the mailmerge file is to be entered into the datafile string- gadget. Before the compilation or the print-out a window is opened and the mailmerge file is loaded. The window is only opened, if a window with the name of the mailmerge file does not already exist. Subsequently the selected data sets are displayed and you can decide whether you want to modify or skip the data, or if you want to print all data sets without being bothered again with a requester asking for confirmation. @EndNode @Node MMMark "TPP/Menus/TeX/MM-Mark" One of the ten mailmerge marks (Mail0 ... Mail9) is inserted into the text. @EndNode @Node Table "TPP/Menus/TeX/Table" TPP provides a simple way to typeset complex tables in TeX. A table created by TPP normally consists of a title, some columns, the names of those columns and finally of a caption. When creating a new table all fields of the table window are empty at the beginning. If the cursor is located within an already existing definition of a table when invoking the table window, all fields are filled out using the information stored in the text. You may define up to 20 columns and for every column one of five different alignments: Besides left- and rightaligned and centered justification comma- and dot-alignment are available, i. e. in those columns all entries are aligned to a comma or a dot (useful for columns that contain lots of numbers). The entries of one row are separated by a backslah ('\'). Following keywords may be used within a table definition: Table This keyword marks the beginning of a table, which must be closed by an End. Title What is the table's title? Caption A comment is placed at the bottom of the table. Tables used in a book are automatically numbered. If 'TLabel name of the label' appears within the table definition, you can refer to the table using TRef. Width You only have to specify the width of the whole table. TeX automatically finds out the correct width of every column. Horizontal Is every row of the table to be separated by an horizontal rule? Analogous: Vertical. Border The table is framed. OnlyNames Only the names of the columns are separated from the other rows by a horizontal rule. (Horizontal must be switched off for this purpose.) Columns The definition of the columns' names follows. The alignment of the respective column (TabLeft, TabRight, TabCentered, TabComma, TabDot) is followed by its name. Entries The entries of a row are separated by a backslash ('\'). Of course, you do not have to enter those keywords manually, because TPP automatically inserts them into the text after leaving the table window. @EndNode @Node Graphics "TPP/Menus/TeX/Graphics" It is not possible to let text flow around the picture, yet. Following keywords are available and like the definition of tables (see also @{"Table" link Table}) they do not have to be entered manually. Graphics This keyword marks the beginning of a picture, which must be closed by an End. IFFFile Name of the iff-file. Caption A comment is placed at the bottom of the picture. Pictures used in a book are automatically numbered. If 'FLabel name of the figure' appears within the graphics definition, you can refer to the figure using FRef. Width What dimensions (Width, Height) shall the picture have? DefColors Are the default colors to be used? If not, then you can specify (Red, Green, Blue, Bright) the colors and the brightness of the picture. The values must range from 0 to 15. Mode Is the picture to be printed as a black and white (BW), a coloured (Colour) or as an HAM-picture? Position Shall the picture be printed leftaligned (PosLeft), rightaligned (PosRight) or centered (PosCenter)? Finally, I have to point out, that the portability of a '.dvi'-file gets lost by including an IFF-picture into a document. @EndNode @Node Extras "TPP/Menus/Extras" @{"Files" link Files} @{"Undo" link Undo} @{"Date" link Date} @{"Set Mailmerge" link SetMailmerge} @{"Go to Mark" link GoToMark} @{"Go to ..." link GoTo} @{"Go to line x" link GoToLine} @EndNode @Node Files "TPP/Menus/Extras/Files" A filerequester pops up and due to the selected menuitem all files are either deleted or renamed. Of course, multiselect is supported, too. Further you are able to create a directory. 'Change filename' only affects the name of the active window. @EndNode @Node Undo "TPP/Menus/Extras/Undo" Undo the current line. @EndNode @Node Date "TPP/Menus/Extras/Date" The current date is inserted at the cursor's position. @EndNode @Node SetMark "TPP/Menus/Extras/SetMark" One of ten marks is initialized. TPP remembers both column and line of the cursor's current position. @EndNode @Node GoToMark "TPP/Menus/Extras/GoToMark" If the mark has already been set (see also @{"Go to Mark" link GoToMark}), TPP jumps to the marked place. 'Set Mark' and 'Go to Mark' provide an easy way to find one's way even in larger documents. @EndNode @Node GoTo "TPP/Menus/Extras/Go to ..." After the string which is to be searched for has been entered, TPP is searching for it at the beginning of every line and only finds the string if it starts in the first column. This routine is quite useful for C- programmers, because one can find modules, e.g. main(), very fast especially in long sourcecodes. @EndNode @Node GoToLine "TPP/Menus/Extras/Go to line x" TPP jumps to line x. This routine, too, is useful for programmers, because compilers tell the user the line in which an error has occurred. @EndNode @Node Extern "TPP/Menus/Extern" Up to 15 items may be added to the extern menu. In order to create menuitems of the extern menu see @{"Extern Menu" link ExternMenu}. @EndNode @Node CreatingDocuments "TPP/Creating documents" In order to create a document you normally load a form sheet, which you only have to fill out and extend according to your wishes. Due to the fact that you learn at most by examples, there are lots of them for all document- types. By inserting an empty line you start a new paragraph. In general a letter consists of a sender, an address, a subject, an opening and finally of a closing. A postscriptum and comments on enclosures and carbon copies may be added at the bottom. I assume that understanding how to create a letter is not too difficult. The lay-out of a book follows the scheme: · Titlepage with specification of the author and the title. Eventually the titlepage also contains a summary of the content. · Table of contents, which contains the titles of all sections and subsections. · Sections, which are automatically numbered. Every sections may be divided in further subsections and subsubsections. · Appendix, e g. for references. If the appendix consists of several sections, these sections are numbered with capital letters. · Every page, except the titlepage, has head- and footlines, that contain informations about the page number and the title of the section that is started or continued on the respective page. Articles are the most shapeless type of document, which can be created with TPP. Normally, you choose your document to be an article, if you neither want to write a letter nor a book. Since 4.10 LaTeX-books and -articles can be created with the help of TPP. The general structure of those document-types follows the same scheme as described above. But in contrast to the above description of designing books a bibliography and a sorted index (using MakeIndex) can automatically be created. Furthermore, a text can be divided in chapters in the LBuch environment. @EndNode @Node ARexxPort "TPP/ARexx-Port" @{"The ARexx-Port of TPP" link TheARexxPortOfTPP} @{"ARexx-Returncodes" link ARexxReturncodes} @{"ARexx-Commands" link ARexxCommands} @EndNode @Node TheARexxPortOfTPP "TPP/ARexx-Port/The ARexx-Port of TPP" ARexx is the implementation of the programming language Rexx (Restructured EXtended eXecutor). Rexx was developed by Michael F. Cowlishaw on an IBM VM/SP under VM/CMS and has been ported to the Amiga by William S. Hawes. ARexx distinguishes itself from other languages by its powerful command interface, i.e. ARexx programs can issue commands to external programs that provide a suitable command interface and thus can have an impact on the behaviour of these programs. Since V3.0 TPP has an ARexx-interface and provides more than 100 different commands. The hostname of TPP is 'TextPlus'. By pressing 'Esc' you get into the command line. ARexx macros for TPP may be invoked in two ways: · Implicitly, by specifying the name of a macro on TPP's command line, followed by any arguments to be passed to the macro. The macro name must not be the same as an internal TPP command. Note that the entire command string is passed to the ARexx interperter "as is", with the case of any arguments, special characters, etc. being preserved. · By hitting a function key or choosing a menu item of the 'Extern' menu. The implicit form of a macro command line, with any arguments, may be mapped to a key or a menu item. If a function key is pressed when in command line mode the command mapped to the function key is not executed but displayed in the command line. ARexx macros for TPP should be given the filename extension '.tpl'. Furthermore they must reside in the current directory, or the directory 'rexx:' is assigned to. The current directory is searched first, followed by the "rexx:" directory. @EndNode @Node ARexxReturncodes "TPP/ARexx-Port/ARexx-Returncodes" ErrorCode Severity Meaning 0 10 no window available for execution of sent command 1 4 error while loading 2 4 error while printing 3 4 couldn't open window 4 4 error while saving 5 4 couldn't find window 6 4 error while executing 'Execute' 7 1 operation on block failed 8 1 find / replace failed 9 1 changing of prefs failed 10 1 operation on window failed @EndNode @Node ARexxCommands "TPP/ARexx-Port/ARexx-Commands" @{"Activate" link ARexxActivate} @{"Append" link ARexxAppend} @{"AutoDivMode" link ARexxAutoDivMode} @{"AutoSave" link ARexxAutoSave} @{"BackTab" link ARexxBackTab} @{"BackUpMode" link ARexxBackUpMode} @{"BBottom" link ARexxBBottom} @{"BCopy " link ARexxBCopy} @{"BCopyTmp " link ARexxBCopyTmp} @{"BDelBackTab" link ARexxBDelBackTab} @{"BDelete" link ARexxBDelete} @{"BIndent" link ARexxBIndent} @{"BInsTab" link ARexxBInsTab} @{"BLeft" link ARexxBLeft} @{"BLoad" link ARexxBLoad} @{"Block" link ARexxBlock} @{"BMode" link ARexxBMode} @{"BMove" link ARexxBMove} @{"Bottom" link ARexxBottom} @{"BPaste" link ARexxBPaste} @{"BRight" link ARexxBRight} @{"BS" link ARexxBS} @{"BSave" link ARexxBSave} @{"BTop" link ARexxBTop} @{"Casesensitive" link ARexxCasesensitive} @{"ChFilename" link ARexxChFilename} @{"Clear" link ARexxClear} @{"ClearTab" link ARexxClearTab} @{"ClearTabs" link ARexxClearTabs} @{"Clock" link ARexxClock} @{"Color" link ARexxColor} @{"Continuous" link ARexxContinuous} @{"CR" link ARexxCR} @{"DelBackTab" link ARexxDelBackTab} @{"Del " link ARexxDel} @{"DelLeft" link ARexxDelLeft} @{"DelLine" link ARexxDelLine} @{"DelRight" link ARexxDelRight} @{"DelSpace" link ARexxDelSpace} @{"Display" link ARexxDisplay} @{"Down" link ARexxDown} @{"Execute" link ARexxExecute} @{"Find " link ARexxFind} @{"First" link ARexxFirst} @{"GetChar" link ARexxGetChar} @{"GetColumn" link ARexxGetColumn} @{"GetFontHeight" link ARexxGetFontHeight} @{"GetLine" link ARexxGetLine} @{"GetName" link ARexxGetName} @{"GetScreenHeight" link ARexxGetScreenHeight} @{"GetScreenWidth" link ARexxGetScreenWidth} @{"GetString" link ARexxGetString} @{"GetWord" link ARexxGetWord} @{"GoTo" link ARexxGoTo} @{"GoToLine" link ARexxGoToLine} @{"GoToMark" link ARexxGoToMark} @{"Iconify" link ARexxIconify} @{"InsertDate" link ARexxInsertDate} @{"InsertMode" link ARexxInsertMode} @{"InsTab" link ARexxInsTab} @{"IsWord" link ARexxIsWord} @{"Justify" link ARexxJustify} @{"Last" link ARexxLast} @{"Left" link ARexxLeft} @{"LeftEdge" link ARexxLeftEdge} @{"LetterMode" link ARexxLetterMode} @{"Load" link ARexxLoad} @{"MoveWindow" link ARexxMoveWindow} @{"NewWindow" link ARexxNewWindow} @{"Next" link ARexxNext} @{"NextR " link ARexxNextR} @{"PageDown" link ARexxPageDown} @{"PageLength" link ARexxPageLength} @{"PageUp" link ARexxPageUp} @{"Prev " link ARexxPrev} @{"PrevR" link ARexxPrevR} @{"Replace" link ARexxReplace} @{"RequestInt" link ARexxRequestInt} @{"RequestString" link ARexxRequestString} @{"Right" link ARexxRight} @{"RightEdge" link ARexxRightEdge} @{"RX" link ARexxRX} @{"Quit" link ARexxQuit} @{"Save" link ARexxSave} @{"SaveAndQuit" link ARexxSaveAndQuit} @{"ScreenBottom" link ARexxScreenBottom} @{"ScreenDown" link ARexxScreenDown} @{"ScreenToBack" link ARexxScreenToBack} @{"ScreenToFront" link ARexxScreenToFront} @{"ScreenTop" link ARexxScreenTop} @{"ScreenUp" link ARexxScreenUp} @{"SetColors" link ARexxSetColors} @{"SetFont" link ARexxSetFont} @{"SetMark" link ARexxSetMark} @{"SetTab" link ARexxSetTab} @{"SizeWindow" link ARexxSizeWindow} @{"Style" link ARexxStyle} @{"Tab" link ARexxTab} @{"Top" link ARexxTop} @{"ToMouse" link ARexxToMouse} @{"Type" link ARexxType} @{"UnBlock" link ARexxUnBlock} @{"Undo" link ARexxUndo} @{"UndoDelLine" link ARexxUndoDelLine} @{"Up" link ARexxUp} @{"WDelLeft" link ARexxWDelLeft} @{"WDelRight" link ARexxWDelRight} @{"WindowToBack" link ARexxWindowToBack} @{"WindowToFront" link ARexxWindowToFront} @{"WLeft" link ARexxWLeft} @{"WRight" link ARexxWRight} @EndNode @Node ARexxActivate "TPP/ARexx-Port/ARexx-Commands/Activate" NAME Activate Filename FUNCTION Activate window with the name 'filename'.
