1. Getting Started
1.1. Introduction
Welcome to OnScreen/2, a sophisticated fullscreen text and binary file
viewer for the OS/2, DOS and Win32 operating systems running on IBM
compatible PCs based on the 386 or higher CPUs.
OnScreen/2 displays files in a text window or fullscreen session and
provides scrolling, positioning and filtering commands. The motivation
behind OnScreen/2 was to provide an identical (or as near as possible to)
text mode file viewer for OS/2, DOS and Win32.
OnScreen/2 provides a powerful file browser for selecting files which also
provides basic file management functionality.
OnScreen/2 supports redirected input (i.e. piping).
1.2. Installation
OnScreen/2 installation could not be simpler, just change into the directory
where you unzipped OnScreen/2 to and run install.
If you executed the command unzip os2_11or.zip in A:\ then you would have a
directory named OnScreen/2 in A:\. Simply change to A:\ and type install.
If you are using PKUNZIP you will have to use the -d option otherwise you
will not have the required directory structure for the installation program.
When installing the OS/2 or Win32 version you can install either the .DLL
implementation or the non .DLL implementation. If you do not envisage
installing any of the other Warp Factor 7 utilities (availability early 95)
then installing the non .DLL version is most likely what you should do.
The installation program allows you to specify which directory to use for
the OnScreen/2 base files and the .DLL files. It also allows you to specify
whether you want the .DLL version or not.
1.3. Compatibility
OnScreen/2 2.11 has been tested for compatibility with the following
operating systems.
OS/2: Versions 2.0, 2.1, 2.11 and 3.0 Warp.
Windows NT: Version 3.5 only.
Windows 95: Final beta only.
DOS: Versions 5.0, 6.0, 6.21, 6.22.
1.4. Acknowledgements

2. Using OnScreen/2
2.1. Starting OnScreen/2
2.1.1. Command line syntax
You may start OnScreen/2 with or without parameters. The general syntax
is as follows:-
os [switches] [filespec...]
Switches comprise one or more / characters followed by option letters or
numbers. (eg. /help)
The following switches are available in this release.
/help displays the list of switches
/ignorestdin causes OnScreen/2 to ignore redirected stdin
/raw style disables filter for specified style
/search regexp|plain set searches to regular expression or plain text
/textwithlayout on|off turn textwithlayout on or off
/highbit on|off turn highbit filter on or off
A hyphen (-) may be used in place of the /. The environment variable
SWITCHCHAR can be set to the list of characters that will be accepted as
switch characters. (eg. SET SWITCHCHAR=/-$)
Filespec may be one or more filenames which may contain wildcards.
OnScreen/2 uses a regular expression pattern matcher for the wildcards
and therefore does not conform to the standard OS/2, DOS or Win32 command
shell wildcards.
OnScreen/2 wildcards are as follows:-
* Match zero or more occurrences of any character.
. Match the period/fullstop character.
? Match a single occurence of any character.
[az] Match a single occurence of specified characters.
[a-z] Match a single occurence of specified range of characters.
For example the wildcard file specification xxx.[qa]*.xyz will match
files beginning with xxx. followed by a q or an a and zero of more
occurrences of any character followed by .xyz.
If OnScreen/2 is started without any command line parameters or with a
single parameter which is the name of a directory it will bring up the
file browser.
2.1.2. Redirection/piping
OnScreen/2 is capable of acting as a command line filter. An example of
this is:-
[C:\]dir c:\ /s | os
There are some restrictions in the current release. With this release
OnScreen/2 has to read the entire output before it will display anything.
This means that until the command which is generating the output has
completed you will not be able to view the output with OnScreen/2. This
restriction will be lifted in a future release.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OnScreen/2 User's Guide Page 2-6
2.2. Exiting OnScreen/2
There are three different ways to exit from OnScreen/2.
The Alt+Q command clears the screen and then returns to the prompt. The Q
and X commands also perform the same function. The Alt+Q function works in
both the file viewer and the file browser. The Q and X commands only work
in the file viewer.
The Alt+A command returns to the prompt clearing the last line on the
screen but otherwise leaving the display exactly as it was. The Ctrl+X and
ESC commands also perform the same function but only work in the file
viewer and the ESC command only quits if there are no files are loaded.
The Alt+X key combination restores the screen to the display you had before
OnScreen/2 was run and then returns to the prompt. It works in both the
file viewer and the file browser.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OnScreen/2 User's Guide Page 2-7
2.3. File Viewer
2.3.1. Commands
You control the OnScreen/2 File Viewer by pressing keys or combinations
of keys which correspond to the OnScreen/2 File Viewer commands. Some
commands have more than one key combination associated with them, e.g.
Next File = Alt+N or Ctrl+PgDn.
The key combinations associated with specific commands are pre-programmed
into the OnScreen/2 File Viewer and cannot be changed at this time. This
restriction will be lifted in a future release.
2.3.2. Text with layout information
OnScreen/2 can display files containing text with layout information.
Files with layout information contain special characters that direct
OnScreen/2 to display subsequent characters in a different colour. This
User's Guide contains these special characters. If you are viewing this
guide using OnScreen/2 you can press L now to toggle text with layout
information off so you can see these characters.
Two methods of controlling the colour of the text are supported.
UNIX(tm) nroff style and Wordstar(tm) style.
nroff uses the following format:-
_<BKSPACE><CHARACTER> Display character in underlined colour.
<CHARACTER><BKSPACE><CHARACTER> Display character in bold colour.
Wordstar(tm) uses the following format:-
^B text ^B Display text in bold colour.
^S text ^S Display text in underlined colour.
^B^S text ^S^B Display text in bold and underlined
colour.
The text with layout option can be toggled with the L command, it can
also be set on a per file-type basis by creating a style with the text
with layout option either ON or OFF in the os.set settings file
2.3.3. Tab Expansion
When Tab expansion is enabled OnScreen/2 will display the correct number
of spaces for each Tab character it encounters. The default Tab size is
3, but this can be changed with the Tab and Shift+Tab commands. The Tab
size can also be set on a per file-type basis by creating a style with a
specific Tab size in the os.set settings file.
2.3.4. Hex Mode
Hex mode displays the file in a format similar to the debug command.
When switching between text mode and hex mode an attempt to retain the
same positioning is made, but this is not always perfect. Hex mode can
be toggled with the H command, it can also be set on a per file-type
basis by creating a style with hex mode either ON or OFF in the os.set
settings file.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OnScreen/2 User's Guide Page 2-8
2.3.5. Hi-bit filter
The high-bit filter strips the high-bit from all characters above ASCII
127. It also handles the 0x8D character as a carriage-return thereby
allowing easy viewing of Wordstar(tm) files. The high-bit filter can be
toggled with the . command. It can also be set on a per file-type basis
by creating a style with the high-bit filter either ON or OFF in the
os.set settings file.
2.3.6. Bookmarks
You can set a bookmark with the Alt+0..9 commands. You can go to a
previously set bookmark with the Alt+G command followed by the digit
representing the bookmark you wish to jump to.
If you drop a bookmark that you had already set elsewhere then it will be
reset to the new location. If you wish to clear a bookmark simply go to
it and then set it again, this will clear it.
2.3.7. Memory usage
OnScreen/2 normally only keeps one file loaded at a time (ie. the one
you're looking at), this helps reduce memory usage. The K command
toggles between keeping all the files you have looked at loaded and just
loading the one you are currently viewing.
Obviously keeping all files loaded speeds up switching between multiple
loaded files but it also uses lots more memory. The default is to only
keep the currently viewed file loaded.
2.3.8. Searching
OnScreen/2 provides for searches which can be case-sensitive and
case-insensitive and may be either forwards or backwards as you require.
OnScreen/2 also provides for regular expression searches. Regular
expressions are a powerful way of expressing a pattern that a search will
match.
With regular expressions you can specify searches such as the following:-
d[ie]*lay
This will find text where it begins with a d followed by an i or an e and
zero or more occurrences of any character followed by lay. This will
find words such as delay and display.
Unlike typical UNIX based applications OnScreen/2's regular expressions
are capable of being case-sensitive or case-insensitive.
For a case-sensitive search use the S, Alt+S or / commands, and for
case-insensitive searches use the F, Alt+F or \ commands. The Alt+F and
Alt+S commands search backwards.
OnScreen/2 starts searches either from the line the current selection is
on, or from the top of the file if there is no selection active. You can
clear the current selection with the C command.
The A and Ctrl+L commands repeat the previous search. All the parameters
of the previous search are preserved with the exception of the setting of
the regular expression toggle, which can be toggled on and off between
repeat searches.
OnScreen/2 will scroll the display up, down, left or right as necessary
to bring the matching text into view. Only the matching text will be
highlighted not the entire line.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OnScreen/2 User's Guide Page 2-9
2.3.9. Invoking a shell
You can invoke a shell by using the Alt+O command. This will take you to
the current default shell for the operating system for which OnScreen/2
has been compiled. You may execute any command you normally would at
this shell with the exception of TSR's. You may find that in a DOS
environment you have too little memory to do any serious work within this
shell.
Use the EXIT command to return to OnScreen/2.
NB: TSR's do not affect the OS/2 or Win32 environments.
2.3.10. Video mode support
OnScreen/2 supports whatever text mode you happend to be in. It does not
have any built in facility to change text mode. You can change it with
the mode command or a utility which may have been supplied with your
video card.
Windows NT allows you to change the number of rows and columns of
windowed sessions. It is not recommended that you change these settings
while you are running OnScreen/2. It is also not recommended that you
switch to fullscreen if you are using settings that would not be
supported there.
OnScreen/2 cannot operate in less than 80 column mode.
2.3.11. Invoking an editor
The Alt+E command invokes an editor on the current file. The editor must
be set in the os.set file. A default editor can be assigned by defining
a style from which all others inherit. SubStyles can prevent editing by
setting the editor to blank.
eg. Editor =>
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OnScreen/2 User's Guide Page 2-10
2.3.12. Status Lines
The top and bottom lines of the display are status lines. The top line
provides status information relating to the file currently being viewed.
The bottom status line displays the name of the program, the release
version and the operating system it was compiled for. It also displays
the copyright message and any error messages as well as serving as a
location for menu type selection and line editing. On the far right it
shows the current time in 12 hour format. The environment variable TZ
must be set for the time to be displayed correctly. (eg. SET TZ=GMT)
There are 3 distinct formats for the top status line. They can be cycled
through with the Alt+Z command.
Format 1.

type cus and this will move the file selection bar to the first file with
the prefix cus.
The Tab and Backspace keys move you forwards and backwards respectively.
If you hold down the shift key then you are in directory select mode as
opposed to file select mode.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OnScreen/2 User's Guide Page 2-14
3. Configuration
OnScreen/2's configuration can be controlled from the keyboard or from the
os.set file. The preferred method is to use the os.set file as this is the
way all OnScreen/2 settings will be stored in the future.
If you are viewing a file for which a style applies and make changes to
OnScreen/2 settings using the command keys, you are only affecting that style.
The bottom status line will indicate that a change has been made to a style as
against a global change.
Changes made to a style using the command keys are not permanent. These
changes are lost once the OnScreen/2 session is terminated. You will have to
edit the os.set file to affect those changes permanently.
Future releases of OnScreen/2 will store global or style specific changes to
the os.set file and the os.ini file will be removed.
3.1. Styles
The os.set file allows for the specification of one or more user defined
styles which can be associated with specific file extensions. Comments in a
set file begin with a ; and end at eol.
Style name (extensions list) [inherited styles]
{
BackGndColor => Green
}
eg.
Style C++ (.cpp .cxx .hxx .hpp) Default, C
{
Reserved => private
=> catch
SingleLineComment => //
}
This declares a style called C++ which is associated with files with the
extensions .cpp .cxx .hxx .hpp and inherits from the styles Default and C. A
style does not have to inherit from other styles.
The extensions list can also be a single *, which indicates that this is a
default style which will apply to all files which have either no extension
or an extension for which a specific style has not been defined. If you
specify this default style it should appear as the first style in the os.set
file.
See the supplied os.set file for complete examples.
