SYNOPSIS
wordgrinder [options] [filename]
DESCRIPTION
xwordgrinder is a simple character cell word processor that runs on X11. It is primarily designed for text entry. It's designed to get the hell out of your way and let you write; it does very little, but what it does it does well.
It supports Unicode, basic paragraph styles, basic character styles, basic screen markup, a menu interface that means you don't have to remember complex key sequences, HTML import and export, and some other useful features.
When running, pressing ESC (or ALT + menu shortcut key) will open the menu.
OPTIONS
These options follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-').
- -h, --help
-
Show summary of options.
- --lua filename
-
Loads and executes a Lua file before startup.
- --convert srcfile destfile
-
Converts from
srcfile
to
destfile
and then exits.
The type of the file is autodetected from the extension of the filename. The source file may have a document name suffixed with a : for use when importing or exporting WordGrinder files.
- --config file.lua
-
Sets the name of the user config file.
CONFIGURATION
The user config file is a Lua file which is loaded and executed before the program starts up (but after any --lua files). It defaults to:
- ~/.wordgrinder.lua
-
