It uses no special +metrics and automatically converts the printer coordinates into screen +coordinates; using the user-specified screen resolution, rather than the +actual resolution so that the appropriate fonts can be found. If +``\fB\-\fP'' is given as the +.I filename, +.I xditview +reads from standard input. +If ``\fB|\fP'' is the first character of +.I filename, +.I xditview +forks +.I sh +to run the rest of the ``file name'' and uses the +standard output of that command. +.SH OPTIONS +.I Xditview +accepts all of the standard X Toolkit command line options along with the +additional options listed below: +.TP 8 +.B \-page \fIpage-number\fP +This option specifies the page number of the document to be displayed at +start up time. +.TP 8 +.B \-resolution \fIscreen-resolution\fP +This specifies the desired screen resolution to use; fonts will be opened by +requesting this resolution field in the XLFD names. +.TP 8 +.B \-noPolyText +Some X servers incorrectly implement PolyText with multiple strings +per request. This option suppesses the use of this feature in +.I xditview. +.TP 8 +.B \-backingStore \fIbacking-store-type\fP +Redisplay can take up to a second or so; this option causes +the server to save the window contents so that when it is scrolled around the +viewport, the window is painted from contents saved in backing store. +\fIbacking-store-type\fP can be one of \fBAlways\fP, \fPWhenMapped\fP or +\fPNotUseful\fP. +.PP +The following standard X Toolkit command line arguments are commonly used with +.I xditview: +.TP 8 +.B \-bg \fIcolor\fP +This option specifies the color to use for the background of the window. +The default is \fIwhite\fP. +.TP 8 +.B \-bd \fIcolor\fP +This option specifies the color to use for the border of the window. +The default is \fIblack\fP. +.TP 8 +.B \-bw \fInumber\fP +This option specifies the width in pixels of the border surrounding the window. +.TP 8 +.B \-fg \fIcolor\fP +This option specifies the color to use for displaying text. The default is +\fIblack\fP. +.TP 8 +.B \-fn \fIfont\fP +This option specifies the font to be used for displaying widget text. The +default is \fIfixed\fP. +.TP 8 +.B \-rv +This option indicates that reverse video should be simulated by swapping +the foreground and background colors. +.TP 8 +.B \-geometry \fIgeometry\fP +This option specifies the preferred size and position of the window. +.TP 8 +.B \-display \fIhost\fP:\fIdisplay\fP +This option specifies the X server to contact. +.TP 8 +.B \-xrm \fIresourcestring\fP +This option specifies a resource string to be used. +.SH X DEFAULTS +This program uses a +.I Dvi +widget. It understands all of the core resource names and +classes as well as: +.PP +.TP 8 +.B width (\fPclass\fB Width) +Specifies the width of the window. +.TP 8 +.B height (\fPclass\fB Height) +Specifies the height of the window. +.TP 8 +.B foreground (\fPclass\fB Foreground) +Specifies the default foreground color. +.TP 8 +.B font (\fPclass\fB Font) +Specifies the font to be used for error messages. +.TP 8 +.B FontMap (\fBclass\fB FontMap) +To associate the +.I ditroff +fonts with appropriate X fonts, this string +resource contains a set of new-line separated specifications, each of which +consists of a ditroff name, some white space and an XLFD pattern with * +characters in appropriate places to allow all sizes to be listed.
