\@171 Contents of this sample note file: \@

■ Purpose
■ Note Editor
■ Note and Bookmark Directory
■ Linking Notes to Pages
■ Using Video Commands
\@171 Purpose \@
LookBook's note support provides the ability to add
explanatory comments to your documents text. For example, a
computer program manual can be noted with comments that explain
how a particular function applies to a unique sitiuation.
Another example would be a LookBook travel directory that you
might "note" with current prices for lodging, car rentals, etc.
\@171 Note Editor \@
You may record document notes with LookBook's utility
editor, LB_ED, or your favorite word processor/editor. If you
wish to use your editor, you must record the command and path
information as part of LookBook's configuration data. When you
choose note recording, LookBook appends the appropriate note
file name to your editor's command path. When you do not
designate an editor command, LookBook defaults to LB_ED.
\@171 Note and Bookmark Directory \@
LookBook expects notes and bookmarks to reside with the
document in the document's directory. When this is not
practical you may specify a different directory via the
configuration function.
\@171 Linking Notes to Pages \@
You link notes with pages by enclosing the exact page number
in braces "{}" (12-1, 135, In-5, etc.) and placing it near the text
you wish to link. When the note feature is selected, LookBook
places the current document page's number in the "page link"
variable for automatic search via "F5=PageLink".
Note Linking Example:
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
To experiment with note attachment, return to the document
and go to page 4 (make sure page 4 displays as active on line 2).
Select "F6=Note" and "R" for review to return to the Notes View.
Upon returning press the "F5=PageLink" and tap ENTER. If the
link is found, the current line marker will be placed on the
"bracketed 4" below. If the link is not found, try a reverse
search by using the up arrow key instead of the ENTER key to
launch the search.
{4} This page number would normally appear at the
beginning of the note text.
\@171 Using Video Commands \@
You may use the video commands to embellish your notes.
The following summary illustrates their use.
\\b = double intensity \bdouble intensity example\b
\\i = reverse video \i reverse video example \i
\\u = underline on mono
blue on color \u underline example \u
\\f = blinking text. \fblinking example\f
\\@E01 = color \@E01 yellow on black \@
\\@fbn
f=foreground
b=background
n=when text colors don't match
if 0 ignore
if 1 use highlight.
\\t = tab to next tab stop
every 8 spaces
1,9,17.... tab\texample
If you plan to use these in your text you must precede all
matching text that appears naturally in the text with a slash.
To reveal how the commands work toggle command recognition by
\fpressing "CTRL-E" right now.\f Press Ctrl-E again before
returning to the document.
\@171 Continuation of Note Linking Example \@
{4} Searching for notes works just like the phrase and word
search. You may have to search backward for a note unless
your search begins at the top of the file. Try this by
pressing "F5" and the "Up Arrow" key.
\i End of Note Example \i
Return to the document and go to the table of contents (F3)
and select the "Color and Enhanced Text" topic.
