NAME
vprerex - graphical front-end and viewer for the prerex(1) prerequisite-chart editor
SYNOPSIS
vprerex basefile[.tex] [ chartfile[.tex] ]
vprerex file.pdf
vprerex
DESCRIPTION
vprerex (visual prerex) is a GUI front-end and viewer for the prerex(1) interactive editor
of prerequisite-chart descriptions in the prerex(5) format. The viewer may be used just
as a minimalistic viewer of arbitrary PDF files but supports editing of charts generated
using prerex.sty(7) by allowing coordinates of course boxes, arrows, and background points
to be conveyed back to the prerex(1) command-line using the clipboard.
USAGE
If vprerex is invoked on a PDF file, it simply displays that file.
If the (first) argument does not have the .pdf suffix, it is assumed to be the base file
for a LaTeX document containing a prerequisite-chart description in prerex(5) format, to
be edited using prerex(1). If a second argument is supplied, it is regarded as an
included file containing the specific chart environment to be edited.
If no arguments are supplied, a file-opening dialog allows the user the specify the
prerex(1) base file to be edited (or the PDF file to be viewed); if a separate chartfile
is needed, vprerex(1) must be invoked wth two arguments on the command line.
If the mouse hovers over a hyperlink in the PDF viewing window, the cursor shape will
change to a pointing finger and a tooltip will display the URI. If the PDF file displayed
contains a chart generated using prerex.sty(7) and the background coordinate grid has been
enabled, left-clicking the mouse on a course box, arrow mid-point, or background point
will load the relevant coordinates into the X clipboard. The cursor shape changes to a
plus-sign to indicate successful capture of the coordinates. Middle-clicking the mouse at
the prerex(1) command-line will then paste those coordinates into a command being
composed. If the chart file is regenerated, the updated document will be re-loaded.
DEPENDENCIES
vprerex is based on the Qt-4 library. It calls xterm(1) and prerex(1) for the editing
window and uses poppler-qt4 for rendering PDF files.
