Opening a Book from the Command Line (Tru64 UNIX)
You can start Bookreader and open a book directly from the
command line.
To open a book from the command line on Tru64 UNIX,
start Bookreader and specify the book name as the first
argument to the dxbook command. For example,
% /usr/bin/dxbook /usr/lib/X11/dxbook/filename.decw_book &
Alternatively, you can specify a bookshelf file to open. For
example,
% /usr/bin/dxbook /usr/lib/X11/dxbook/filename.decw_bookshelf &
If you supply a path that is invalid, Bookreader tries to
open the default library file, as pointed to by the DECW_
BOOKSHELF environment variable, in the locations speci-
fied by the DECW_BOOK environment variable. See online
help or the book Managing Bookreader Libraries and Books
for more information.
For a full list of Bookreader commands and qualifiers on
Tru64 UNIX, enter the following command:
% man dxbook
