- (@title Environment variables@)This file describes the environment
- variables used by HyperHelp
- program. You can set the values for these variables through
- the AmigaDOS (@ref help:dos/setenv.help@)SETENV(@unref@) command. All of
- these variables are of the form "HELPxxxxx" where xxxxx is the
- specific variable.
-
-
-
- NOTE: For variables that require a numeric value, there are three formats
- supported, as in the 'C' language. A number begining with the
- digits 1-9 is decimal. A number begining with the digit '0' is octal, and
- a number begining with '0x' is hexadecimal.
-
-
-
- (@indent 2@)(@bold@)HotKeyCode(@bold@) - Sets the
- (@ref help:keycodes@)(@color 3@)keycode(@color 1@)(@unref@) to use as a
- (@ref help:hotkeys@)(@color 3@)hotkey(@color 1@)(@unref@). This defaults
- to 0x5f, the Help key.
-
-
-
- (@bold@)HotKeyQual(@bold@) - Sets the qualifier(s) to use in
- combination with the HotKeyCode to set up the hotkey. This defaults to
- 0x0040, the Left Amiga key.
-
-
-
- (@bold@)NoHotKey(@bold@) - Disables the HotKey feature.
-
-
-
- (@label font@)(@bold@)Font(@bold@) - Sets the default font for help
- windows. Example: SETFONT HelpFont string "topaz.font 11"
-
-
-
- (@bold@)NoSetFont(@bold@) - Disables font settings imbeded in help
- files. If you set this variable, and the above variable, you can make all
- help windows to have the font of your choice.
-
-
-
- (@bold@)NumClicks(@bold@) - Sets the number of click needed to activate
- a link. Can be a value from 1 to 4.
-
-
-
- (@bold@)AskFirst(@bold@) - If this variable exists, then HyperHelp will
- ask for confirmation from the user before allowing a link to activate
- and execute. An antiviral measure.
-
-
-
- (@bold@)LSpace(@bold@) - Sets the default line spacing for all help windows.
-
-
-
- (@bold@)PenColor(@bold@) - Sets the default color for displaying
- text in help windows. It can be 1, 2, or 3. Color 0 is the 'papercolor' or
- background color. (@color 1@)This is color 1, (@color 2@)this is color 2,
- and (@color 3@)this is color 3(@color 1@).
-
-
-

- the screen to the top of the first (toplevel) window.
-
-

-
-
-
- (@bold@)Width(@bold@) - The default width, in pixels, of

-
-
- (@bold@)YInc(@bold@) and (@bold@)XInc(@bold@) - The number of pixels to
- offset each new window from its predecessor. (@bold@)YInc(@bold@)
- offsets vertically, and (@bold@)XInc(@bold@) offsets horizontally. This
- prevents new windows from completely hiding previously opened windows.
-
-
-
- (@bold@)Refresh(@bold@) - If set to SMART_REFRESH, then HyperHelp
- will use Smart_REFRESH windows instead of SIMPLE_REFRESH. (@ref help:amiga/windowrefresh@)

-
-
-
- (@bold@)HelpScreen(@bold@) - If the value of this variable is
- "CUSTOM" or "CUSTOMSCREEN," then HyperHelp uses a custom screen to display
- help windows. This screen automatically opens when HyperHelp
- opens the first window, and it closes when you close the last window. You
- can also specify "INTERLACE" in this variable to make the custom screen
- be interlaced.
-
-
