- * This application uses the Tix widget set by Ioi Kim Lam
-
- tkHTML-2.* has undergone major changes since the last version (1.32), namely
- I decided to stop using XF to maintain it, and write it by hand. This allowed
- me to more easily modify and support it.
-
- See the ChangeLog for new features and changes.
-
- INSTALLING
-
- Take a look at the Makefile, be sure that all the paths look correct.
- I've included the parts of the Tix3.6c widget set tthat are required for
- tkHTML to operate. These files would like to be placed in a lib
- directory, like /usr/local/lib (it will create the Tix subdirectory).
- Any other locations than this may require a little bit of editing of 'tkHTML'
- so it finds this lib directory correctly.
-
- Now, just type 'make' and you're set.
-
- Note: this requires that you also install the wwwish tk interpreter,
- instead of the usual wish binary. tkHTML _can_ use wish, bit it will not
- be able to preview correctly. The source for wwwish can be found
- where you got tkHTML.
-
- RUNNING
-
- tkHTML now has the ability to load a file from the command line, instead
- of always having to load a file after starting:
-
- % tkHTML foobar.html
-
- Absolute and relative paths are ok.
-
- If there are any problems with paths being incorrect, just edit tkHTML to match
- your paths, specifically "tkhtmllibdir" and "tixlibdir".
-
- CONFIGURING
-
- tkHTML 2.* is much more flexible than 1.*, allowing for user-definable
- fonts and point sizes in the edit and preview windows. To have these set
- automatically, each time you run tkHTML, you may create a ~/.tkHTML
- file, which has the same format as config.tcl. Here you can set which
- font/point size you want and other items such as configuring an
- international keyboard. A user's .tkHTML will override the default config.tcl.
-
- >> PLEASE NOTE: there is a new addition to config.tcl and ~/.tkHTML which
- allows for the netscape options to be used.
-
- ----
- If you have any problems, questions or comments about tkHTML-2.3, which I'm
- sure you will, please send them to roland@cac.washington.edu.
