- This README file describes the emacs lisp package hm--html-menus-5.8.
-
- The package provides functions and various popup and pulldown menus
- for a html mode called hm--html-mode, a mode for writing html pages.
- It provides also a minor mode (hm--html-minor-mode), which can be used
- together with another html major mode, like the psgml-html mode in the
- XEmacs 19.15.
-
- It has an interface to view the html documents in a W3 browser with
- Netscape, the w3-package from William M. Perry and Mosaic with the
- file html-view.el from Ron Tapia. It provides also a drag and drop
- interface, which makes it very easy to insert links or images, by just
- clicking on them.
-
- Look at the file NEWS, to see what is new in this release. Some
- of the major changes are also listed in the ANNOUNCEMENT file.
-
- You should (but don't need) also get the w3 package from:
-
- cs.indiana.edu:/pub/elisp/w3/w3.tar.z
-
- which provides an world wide web browser mode for the xemacs, emacs
- and epoch.
-
-
- This package is tested with the xemacs 19.15 on Suns with SunOS 5.5
- and on PC's with linux. But it should work also on other (possibly
- only UNIX ?) platforms.
-
- Read the file README-EMACS-19, if you want to use this package with
- GNU Emacs 19.
-
- Thanks to Richard Stallman, who helped me to port this package to the
- Emacs 19, thanks to John Ladwig, who corrected a lot of the text and
- comments in this package and thanks to Michael D. Harnois, who
- corrected the Texinfo documentation and to all the other people like
- Jerry G. DeLapp, Andreas Ernst, Bob Weiner, Luca Pisati, Guylaine
- Prat, Gary D. Foster, Martin Buchholz, Ola Stromfors, Berthold
- Crysmann, Noriaki Seki, Valeriy E. Ushakov, D-P Deng, Rick
- Braumoeller, Sean Dowd and so on, who provided code, ideas, bug fixes
- or bug reports for this package.

- INSTALLATION:
- =============
-
- Note: In this version the setting of the environment variables
- HTML_CONFIG_FILE and HTML_USER_CONFIG_FILE are no longer necessary,
- if you put the user configuration file in the home directory and
- the system configuration file in one of the load path directories
- of your XEmacs or Emacs 19.
-
- 1. Put all the *.el files in one of your xemacs (or emacs) lisp load
- directories (i.e. lisp/packages).
-
- 2. For XEmacs only: Put the files drop and dropmask in the
- directory specified by the lisp variable `idd-data-directory'.
- By default this directory is <prefix>/lib/xemacs-<version>/etc/idd.
- (eg: if you've installed the Xemacs 19.15 in /usr/local, it is
- /usr/local/xemacs/lib/xemacs-19.15/etc/idd).
- If you'd like to put the files in another directory, then you must
- set the variable `idd-data-directory' to this directory (eg:
- (setq idd-data-directory "/usr/local/data")
-
- 3. Put the following in your .emacs (or default.el or site-init.el):
-
- (autoload 'hm--html-mode "hm--html-mode" "HTML major mode." t)
- (autoload 'hm--html-minor-mode "hm--html-mode" "HTML minor mode." t)
- (or (assoc "\\.html$" auto-mode-alist)
- (setq auto-mode-alist (cons '("\\.html$" . hm--html-mode)
- auto-mode-alist)))
-
- (autoload 'tmpl-expand-templates-in-buffer "tmpl-minor-mode"
- "Expand all templates in the current buffer." t)
-
- (autoload 'html-view-start-mosaic "html-view" "Start Xmosaic." t)
- (autoload 'html-view-view-buffer
- "html-view"
- "View the current buffer in Xmosaic."
- t)
- (autoload 'html-view-view-file
- "html-view"
- "View a file in Xmosaic."
- t)
- (autoload 'html-view-goto-url
- "html-view"
- "Goto url in Xmosaic."
- t)
- (autoload 'html-view-get-display
- "html-view"
- "Get the display for Xmosaic (i.e. hostxy:0.0)."
- t)
- (autoload 'w3-preview-this-buffer "w3" "WWW Previewer" t)
- (autoload 'w3 "w3" "WWW Browser" t)
- (autoload 'w3-open-local "w3" "Open local file for WWW browsing" t)
- (autoload 'w3-fetch "w3" "Open remote file for WWW browsing" t)
- (autoload 'w3-use-hotlist "w3" "Use shortcuts to view WWW docs" t)
-
- The above lines assume that you have not installed already another
- html mode. If this isn't true, then you should use the following
-
- (setq auto-mode-alist (cons '("\\.html$" . hm--html-mode)
- auto-mode-alist))
-
- instead of
-
- (or (assoc "\\.html$" auto-mode-alist)
- (setq auto-mode-alist (cons '("\\.html$" . hm--html-mode)
- auto-mode-alist)))
-
- It could also be, that you've already the autoload lines for
- the w3 package in your emacs.
-
- If you want to use this the hm--html-minor-mode together
- with the psgml-html modes, then you should add the following
- line (works only in XEmacs version >= 19.15 and != 20.0)
- (add-hook 'html-mode-hook 'hm--html-minor-mode)
-
- 4. Set (if you want) the environment variable HTML_CONFIG_FILE
- to the html system configuration file i.e.:
- setenv HTML_CONFIG_FILE /usr/xemacs/lisp/hm--html-configuration.el
-
- 5. Set (if you want) the environment variable HTML_USER_CONFIG_FILE to
- the html user configuration file i.e.:
- setenv HTML_USER_CONFIG_FILE ~/.hm--html-configuration.el
- And put the file .hm--html-configuration.el in your Home directory.
- An example for this user specific file is given below.
-
- 6. Check the files hm--html-configuration.el and
- .hm--html-configuration.el whether all variables are set suitable for
- you and your site or not. You can make changes in both of these files
- and you can also create a site specific configuration file, called
- hm--html-site-config-file.el and specified by the lisp variable
- hm--html-site-config-file or the environment variable
- HTML_SITE_CONFIG_FILE, and put your site specific settings in this
- file. A site specific configuration file is useful, if you're a
- system administrator and want to make site specific settings
- without changing a file of this package or use the normal emacs
- configuration files.
- Note that .hm--html-configuration.el precedes the settings in
- hm--html-site-config-file.el, which precedes the settings in
- hm--html-configuration.el (user specific configuration overwrites
- site specific configuration and site specific configuration
- overwrites the settings made by the package).
-
- Look at first at the following variables:
-
- hm--html-signaturefile
- hm--html-username
- hm--html-template-dir
- hm--html-favorite-http-server-host-name
- html-document-previewer
- html-view-mosaic-command
- w3-default-homepage
-
- 7. If you want to use templatefiles, you should put these files
- in the directory to which `hm--html-template-dir' points.
- You can use the file command-description.html.tmpl as
- an example.
-
- 8. If you don't want to use the feature of adding html comments
- about the creation date and author and with a change log, then
- you should set the following three variables to nil:
- hm--html-automatic-changed-comment
- hm--html-automatic-created-comment
-
- 9. If you don't want to set a date in the title line, than you should
- set the following to nil:
- hm--html-automatic-new-date
-
- The following is an example for a user specific configuration file
- called .hm--html-configuration.el. You should put such a file in your
- home directory and put all the variable settings in it, which are user
- specific.
-
- ---- BEGIN of .hm--html-configuration.el ----
- ;;; Private html configuration file
-
- ;; Signature file
- (setq hm--html-signature-file
- "http://www.tnt.uni-hannover.de:80/data/info/www/tnt/org/tnt/whois/wissmit/muenkel.html")
-
- ;; Username (Only necessary if it differs from the passwd entry)
- (setq hm--html-username "Heiko Mⁿnkel")
-
-
- ;; X Window System display for the html-view
- (setq html-view-display "daedalus:0.0")
-
-
- ;; Use the expert menus?
- (setq hm--html-expert t)
-
-
- ;; Delete the automounter path prefix /tmp_mount
- (setq hm--html-delete-wrong-path-prefix "/tmp_mount")
-
-
- ;;;
- ;
- ; W3
-
- ;; Default Home Page for w3-mode in lemacs or GNU Emacs
- (setq w3-default-homepage "file:/home/muenkel/data/docs/www/home.html")
- ---- END of .hm--html-configuration.el ----
-
-
- Every hm--*.el file has a description and installation part. Look at first
- at these parts, if you have any questions.
-
- Look at first at the configuration files, if you have problems with
- this package!
-
- You should also look at the Texinfo documentation of this package.
-
- There is a html documentation about the package. You can find it on:
- http://www.tnt.uni-hannover.de/~muenkel/software/own/hm--html-menus/overview.html
-
-
- Please send any bug reports, fixes or comments to
- muenkel@daedalus.tnt.uni-hannover.de

-
- I hope these files will be useful,
