The <b>level</b> setting is a measure of the user's familiarity with
|
|
XMLterm features. The <em>beginner</em> setting can produce a lot of help
|
|
information. The <em>intermediate</em> setting produces less information,
|
|
and <em>advanced</em> setting produces virtually none.<br>

The <b>icons</b> preference setting determines whether icons should be used
|
|
in XMLterm. If enabled, the prompt becomes an icon and directory listings
|
|
become a GUI-style table of icons. This can use up a lot of screen space
|
|
and slow things down on older computers.

The browser interface uses one-click activation of commands whereas many
|
|
GUIs use one-click selection and double-click activation. Since XMLterm
|
|
has browser and GUI features, it can get a bit confusing. The rules are:
|
|
Single click any explicit underlined <a href="#">hyperlink</a>,
|
|
browser-style. Any highlighted implicit
|
|
<span class="highlight">hyperlink</span> needs to be double clicked
|
|
for activation, with the exception of the command prompt!

|

<div class="tipelement">
|
|
Clicking on the command prompt expands/collapses the output associated with
|
|
a command. An underlined prompt denotes the collapsed state.
|
|
You can even click the prompt before you type the command, which would
|
|
hide the output of the command! To hide the output of all commands,
|
|
use the F1 (or ctl-Home) shortcut key.<br>
|
|
Any string, plain text or HTML, may be used as the command prompt, by typing
|
|
<b>js:SetPrompt('string')</b> in the command line. This means that you can
|
|
use any image as a prompt, through the IMG element. The prompt can even be
|
|
an animated GIF!

Typing <b>js:</b><em>statement</em> in the command line executes any valid

displays its output. The Javascript code may produce a HTML fragment as its

output, which is then appended to the XMLterm page.
