** Help-File fuer BEEBE-Treiber DVIALW, DVIUIS und andere! **
***************************************************************
** To use the program, type:
**
** dviuis {-a} {-b} {-c#} {-d#} {-ffontsubfile} {-l} {-m#} {-o#:#} {-o#} {-p}
** {q} {-x#units} {-y#units} dvifile(s)
**
** The order of command options and DVI file names is not significant;
** all switch values apply to all DVI files. DVI files are processed
** in order from left to right. The command options are (letter case
** is IGNORED):
**
** a Implement virtual font caching, if possible. When a
** font file is opened, a buffer is allocated to
** contain the entire file, and the file is then read
** with one system call. This is important primarily
** on networked file systems, where the many
** random-access calls in the font file for small
** amounts of data entail substantial network overhead.
** With the entire file cached in local memory, this
** overhead is removed.
**
** b Backwards order printing from the default. For example,
** laser printers using the Canon engine print normally
** receive pages in reverse order because they stack printed
** side up. Some have page handling mechanisms that stack
** them face down, and in such a case -b will ensure that
** they come out in order 1,2,... instead of n,n-1,n-2,...
**
** c# Print # copies of each output page.
**
** d# Debug output to stderr if non-zero value given.
**
** ffontsubfile Define an alternate font substitution file which
** is to be used instead of the default ones (see below).
**
** l Inhibit logging.
**
** m# Reset magnification to #. The default is "-m603",
** corresponding to (1/1.2**5) magnification of 300dpi
** fonts. Legal values are int(1000*(1.2)**(k/2)) (k =
** -16,16); other values will be set to the nearest in this
** family. Not all fonts will be available in this wide
** range, and most installations will probably have only a
** half dozen or so magnifications.
**
** o# and
** o#:# Specify a page number, or range of page numbers, to be
** selected for output. This option may be specified any
** number of times. If it is not specified, then all pages
** will be printed. Pages are numbered in order 1,2,3,...
** in the file, but any page number recorded by TeX on the
** printed page will in general be different. As pages are
** selected for printing, "[#{#}" will be printed on
** stderr, where the first is the page number in the file,
** and the second is the value of the TeX counter, \count0,
** which usually records the printed page number. When the
** page is completely output, a closing "]" will be printed
** on stderr. Any error messages from processing of that
** page will therefore occur between the square brackets.
** For example, "-o1:3 -o12 -o17:23" would select pages 1,
** 2, 3, 12, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, and 23 for printing.
** Pages will always be printed in an order appropriate for
** the device so that the first document page occurs first
** face up in the document stack.
**
** p Inhibit font preloading. This may produce output a few
** seconds earlier when all pages are output, but should
** have negligible effect on the execution time, and
** consequently, should normally not be specified. When
** individual pages are being printed with the -o# option,
** preloading is necessary (and will be forced) to ensure
** that all fonts are defined before they are referenced.
**
** q Quiet mode. Status displays to stderr are suppressed,
** unless warning or error messages are issued.
**
** x#bp big point (1in = 72bp)
** x#cc cicero (1cc = 12dd)
** x#cm centimeter
** x#dd didot point (1157dd = 1238pt)
** x#in inch
** x#mm millimeter (10mm = 1cm)
** x#pc pica (1pc = 12pt)
** x#pt point (72.27pt = 1in)
** x#sp scaled point (65536sp = 1pt)
** Specify the left margin of the TeX page on the output
** page in any of the indicated units. Letter case is not
** significant in the unit field, which must not be
** separated from the number by any space. # may be
** fractional. For example, "-x1.0in", "-x2.54cm",
** "-x72.27pt", and "-x6.0225pc" all specify a one inch
** left margin. Negative values are permissible, and may
** be used to shift the output page left (possibly
** truncating it on the left) in order to display a wide
** TeX page.
**
** y# inch
** y#bp big point (1in = 72bp)
** y#cc cicero (1cc = 12dd)
** y#cm centimeter
** y#dd didot point (1157dd = 1238pt)
** y#in inch
** y#mm millimeter (10mm = 1cm)
** y#pc pica (1pc = 12pt)
** y#pt point (72.27pt = 1in)
** y#sp scaled point (65536sp = 1pt)
** Specify the top margin of the TeX page on the output
** page in any of the indicated units. Letter case is not
** significant in the unit field, which must not be
** separated from the number by any space. # may be
** fractional. For example, "-y1.0in", "-y2.54cm",
** "-y72.27pt", and "-y6.0225pc" all specify a one inch top
** margin. Negative values are permissible, and may be
** used to shift the output page up (possibly truncating it
** on the top) in order to display a long TeX page.
**
**
** If no -ffontsubfile option is given, and font substitution is
** required, the files "dvifile.sub" (minus any extension),
** "texfonts.sub", and "texinputs:texfonts.sub" will be tried in order.
** The first two will be found on the current directory, and the last
** is the system default. This gives the option of document-specific,
** user-specific, and system-specific substitutions, and the -f option
** allows all of these to be overridden.
