@node ARexxCmds "ARexx Commandos"

The HyperText DataType provides a own ARexx port for each object.
It's name is the port name passed via DTA_ARexxPortName plus a
suffix of '.1' or if this port exists '.2' and so on.
For example if you start MultiView with a hypertext object, MultiView
passes "MULTIVIEW.1" for DTA_ARexxPortName to the hypertext object.
The hypertext object tries to open a port named "MULTIVIEW.1.1".

The following ARexx Commands are available :

BACK     -- same as pressing the retrace button
BEEP     -- DisplayBeep()
CLOSE    -- quit's the application
CONTENTS -- same as pressing the contents button
FORWARD  -- same as pressing the forward button
HELP     -- same as pressing the help button
INDEX    -- same as pressing the index button
LINK     -- go to the named node
NEXT     -- same as pressing the "browse >" button
PREVIOUS -- same as pressing the "browse <" button
QUIT     -- quit's the application
RETRACE  -- same as pressing the retrace button
