'Commands' provides you with information about any currently executable 
command. Please select first the 'Commands' command and then the command
you want to have information about.

Note, that there are different ways to select commands. The first
one is to select entries in the menu. The second one is to type its
abbrevation. To activate the 'Commands' command e.g. you have either
to press the "Help" key or to type "\hlp" followed by the return
key.  "RET" itself ("\ret") or even "SHIFT-RET" ("^ret") may be used
as a command's abbreviation.

Additionally, (micro-)emacs like key bindings are supported by command
selection, too.

NOTE: Within almost  a n y  state of the system the "Help" key may
be pressed to get more information about possible user interactions.
For additional information about the activation of commands see
also help messages for the following commands of "MISC" and "HELP":

--> 'ChangeMenue', 'TextEdit', 'SyntaxEdit',
    'SelectMeFirst', 'Keyboard', 'TextEditor'
@2
'Keyboard' provides you with information about currently available 
(micro emacs like) key bindings. They may be used for keybord based
command selection if function keys are reserved for the window manager.
For example, instead of pressing "Help" you can also type "CTRL-?".

NOTE: Within almost  a n y  state of the system the "Help" key may
be pressed to get more information about possible user interactions.
For additional information about the activation of commands see
also help messages for the following commands of "MISC" and "HELP":

--> 'ChangeMenue', 'TextEdit', 'SyntaxEdit'
    'SelectMeFirst', 'Commands', 'TextEditor'
@3
'TextEditor' provides you with information about the environment's
built-in micro emacs like text editor.

NOTE: Within almost  a n y  state of the system the "Help" key may
be pressed to get more information about possible user interactions.
For additional information about the activation of commands see
also help messages for the following commands of "MISC" and "HELP":

--> 'ChangeMenue', 'TextEdit', 'SyntaxEdit'
    'SelectMeFirst', 'Commands', 'Keyboard'

'OpenRemote' and 'OpenLocal' display a presentation 
of the current document and activate the corresponding
syntax-directed editor with a graph oriented interface
(right-button-selection of a document also activates
'OpenLocal'). In contrast to 'OpenLocal', 
'OpenRemote' opens the document on a remote host
(reduces processing speed significantly)

-->  'OpenCopy', ... , 'Quit'
@5
'Quit' stores all modifications of the current
document and closes its presentation. Therefore, it's
the inverse command to 'Open...'. 

-->  'OpenRemote', ... , 'OpenText'
@6
'OpenCopy' displays a (second) temporary presentation
of the current document and activates the corresponding
syntax-directed editor (with a graphical interface).

Be aware of the fact that the representation of the document
is temporary and will be deleted by closing the presentation.
Therefore, layout commands are not offered.

-->  'OpenRemote', ... , 'Quit'
@7
'OpenText' displays a text-oriented presentation of the
current document and activates the corresponding
syntax-directed editor (with a text oriented interface).

-->  'OpenRemote', ... , 'Quit'
@8
'WriteFileTextOnly' copies the current increment's textual
representation to a named (UNIX) file. In the case of
graphical representations, the created text file contains
the text of the additionally available text representation.
Note that the created file contains no information about
the layout of the current (graphical) representation.

For creating a backup of the current increment including
invisible increments and all layout information use
'WriteFileWithLayout' (the system automatically creates
text backups within the directory $IPSENBACKUP).
'WriteBackup' creates the representation for 
the whole document.

Attention: 'WriteFileTextOnly', 'WriteFileWithLayout' and
           'WriteBackup' overwrite old (UNIX) files.

--> 'ReadFile'
@9
'ReadFile' may be used to restore (parts of) a document
by its textual backup in the (UNIX) file system. Provided
that 'WriteFileWithLayout' has been used to create the 
(UNIX) file, the document's layout is restored, too.
Each time, a document (representation) is closed, the
system automatically creates a backup text file for the
whole document in the directory $IPSENBACKUP.

Attention: 'ReadFile' replaces the current increment!

--> 'WriteFileWithLayout' 
@10
'ChangeMenue' may be used to edit a text file (using an
emacs-like editor) describing the properties of all
selectable commands. The header of this file contains
a more detailed description of its layout. The file's
name is $IPSENTABLES/cmd.tab with $IPSENTABLES normally
set to $HOME/(progres)data/tables 

Use "SHIFT-RET" to acknowledge your input and to leave
the emacs mode and use "SHIFT-ESC" to escape out of
the emacs mode without causing any modifications of
the current document. Press the "Help" key within the
emacs mode for any further information about key
bindings etc.

--> TextEdit, SyntaxEdit
@11
'StoreWinParams' stores the parameters position, size,
and zooming factor of the current window as new default
values within the file $IPSENTABLES/presentpar.tab with
$IPSENTABLES normally set to $HOME/(progres)data/tables.
All other default parameters of the current window
(presentation) in this file remain unmodified (but may
be changed using any text editor).
@12
'TextEdit' changes the editor's default mode for the
current type of increment from syntax-directed editing
to text-oriented editing. Each time, a placeholder
of the current nonterminal class has to be entered,
the emacs-like text editor will be invoked for this
purpose (the 'TextEdit' command changes some command
priorities within the file $IPSENTABLES/cmd.tab).

--> 'SyntaxEdit', 'ChangeMenue'
@13
'SyntaxEdit' changes the editor's default mode for the
current type of increment from text-oriented editing
to syntax-directed editing. Each time, a placeholder
of the current nonterminal class has to be entered,
the syntax-directed editor expects the selection of
one of the possible expansion alternatives.

--> 'TextEdit', 'ChangeMenue'
@14
'Insert' may be used to create a new document of the specified type
before the current document. 

--> 'Append', 'Extend', 'Copy', 'Rename', 'Delete'
@15
'Append' may be used to create a new document of the specified type
behind the current document. 

--> 'Insert', 'Extend', 'Copy', 'Rename', 'Delete'
@16
'Extend' may be used to create the first document of the specified
type.

--> 'Insert', 'Append', 'Copy', 'Rename', 'Delete'
@17
'Copy' may be used to copy the actual document.

--> 'Insert', 'Append', 'Extend', 'Rename', 'Delete'
@18
'Rename' changes the name of the current document.
@19
'Delete' may be used to delete the current document. The document
and the depending representations must be closed.

--> 'Insert', 'Append', 'Extend', 'Copy'
@20
'QuitDelRepr' is similar to 'Quit', i.e. it stores all modifications 
of the current document, and closes its presentation. But furthermore,
it deletes the representation to save memory. Notice, that it will need
more time to reopen the document, since the representation must be newly
created. 

-->  'Quit'
@21
'WriteFileWithLayout' copies the current increment's textual
representation including all layout information to a named
(UNIX) file. In the case of graphical representations, the
created text file contains a  text which resembles the
additionally available text representation.

You should use this command for creating a backup of the
current increment (or the whole document) including invisible
increments (the system automatically creates text backups
within the directory $IPSENBACKUP).

Attention: 'WriteFileTextOnly' and 'WriteFileWithLayout' 
            overwrite old (UNIX) files.

--> 'WriteFileTextOnly', 'ReadFile'
@22
'SetSavePeriod' stores a time period given in seconds.
which is considered to decide, whether autosaving is necessary or not.
The autosave mechanism produces no effect, if the input is set to 0.
Note, that the input should not exceed one hour, i.e. 3600 seconds!
@23
'Import' may be used to create the last document of the
specified type in the list. The document is restored by the contents of 
a textual backup (UNIX-file).
 
--> 'Append', 'Extend', 'Copy', 'Rename', 'Delete', 'ReadFile'
@24
'WriteFileXFigFormat' creates the (UNIX) file 'name'.tex. The graphical parts 
of the document are stored in the subdirectory 'name'-frames.

Attention: 'WriteFileXFigFormat' overwrites old (UNIX) files.
@50
Unfortunately, up to now, there is no 
help message available for this command.
