READER(9.7) READER(9.7) NAME reader - electronic retrieval of typeset documents SYNOPSIS reader name DESCRIPTION Reader presents the named paper on a 5620 terminal in a form designed for readability, not for similarity to the printed version. The name is a pathname for a manuscript in the papers(7) database with any final `.d' elided) or the name of a troff(1) input file. Mouse button 1 selects subheads; button 3 moves forward (`more') or backward (`less'). The program exits completely on button 2, or tentatively (to avoid downloading upon reexecution) on button 3 (`done'). When the text in a screen overlaps text in a previous screen, a tick mark in the bar (not a scroll bar) at the left of the screen shows where new material begins. Fully installed papers in the database, which appear as directories suffixed `.d', have been preprocessed so that reader can present figures and complex equations. In troff input, it understands straightforward text and eqn(1), the macro packages ms(6), mm, and me, but cannot handle arbi- trary motions such as appear in figures and complex equa- tions. FILES titles, authors and installation dates membership list /n/bowell/pap/center/department/author/papername[.d] SEE ALSO troff(1), proof(9.1), docsubmit(1), papers(7) BUGS Button 1 knows only already-read subheads unless the paper has been preprocessed. Reader can only handle papers written in troff with standard (-ms, -mm, -me) macro packages.
