NAME

dxterm − DECwindows terminal emulator

SYNOPSIS

dxterm [ flags ]

FLAGS

−customization string
Specifies a value for a dxterm resource that overrides a default setting.  The string has the form resource:value.  You can specify this flag multiple times to change multiple resources.  See the X DEFAULTS section in this reference page for a list of resources that can be changed.  You can specify both dxterm and shell resources as *resource. 

−d dispname
Specifies the display screen on which dxterm displays its window.  If the display flag is not specified, dxterm uses the display screen specified by your DISPLAY environment variable.  The display flag has the format hostname:number.  The default is :0.  For more information, see X(1X). 

−display dispname
Is the same as the −d flag. 

−e command [ options ]
Specifies that the named command, and any of its specified options, be executed in the dxterm window when the window is first created.  This flag must appear last on the dxterm command line. 

−geometry
Specifies the width, length, and location of the dxterm window, in columns, rows and pixels respectively.  This flag has the format [width][xlength][+x][+y]. 

−lsSpecifies that dxterm create a login shell rather than a subshell. 

−setup file
Specifies the setup file or files that provide parameters that control the terminal’s initial settings.  This must be a file saved by the Customize/Save function in dxterm. The default is ~/default.DECterm. Specify −setup "" to prevent default.DECterm from being read. 

−size CxR
Specifies the size of the dxterm window in columns (C) and rows (R).

−xrm string
Is the same as the  -customization flag. 

DESCRIPTION

The dxterm command displays a window that provides Digital VT320 terminal emulation and a standard terminal type for programs not aware of the X Window System directly.  The terminal emulator also supports the ReGIS and sixel graphics protocols.

Options Dialog Boxes

The Options dialog boxes represent the state of the terminal.  At application startup, the previously saved state of most terminal features is read from a saved set-up file (which corresponds to VT320 NVR).  These feature settings remain constant until you explicitly change them.  You can change terminal operating features directly by means of the Options dialog boxes.  You can also change some of these features indirectly by means of control functions from the host. 

There are a few terminal features whose state is not stored in a saved setup file.  These features are restored to their factory default values at application startup, or when you reset the terminal (with Reset Terminal or DECSTR).

The Window Options dialog box lets you change the following window attributes:

Auto Resize Terminal
Changes the terminal size to match the window size automatically whenever the window size changes.

Auto Resize Window

7-bit NRCS Selection Dialog Box

The 7-bit NRCS Selection dialog box lets you select a National Replacement Character Set (NRCS) for use when the terminal is in 7-bit mode.  This selection affects output to the terminal, but not keyboard input. To select the keyboard dialect, which does affect input, use the Keyboard dialog box from the Session Manager’s Customize menu.  For example, to use the Spanish NRCS, select the keyboard in the Session Manager and also select the Spanish NRCS in DECterm. 

To select a character set, click MB1 on the desired entry.  The choices are:

Enable Backing Store
Specifies whether dxterm creates a pixmap to allow graphics to be redrawn when the window is exposed. The default is On. 

Report Macrograph Contents
Enables the ReGIS macrograph report command.  The default is Off.

NN Bit Planes

Print Options Dialog Box

The Printer Options dialog box lets you change the following printer attributes:

Queued Printer
Specifies that a queued printer selected in the Options... dialog box should be used as the printing destination.

Printer Port
By default, the Printer Port option specifies the local printer port. To choose another port, enter the device name in the text entry box.

NoneBy default, the None option discards the queued job. 

Normal Print Mode
To print characters use the Print Screen key or use escape sequences.

Auto Print Mode
By default, a line of information is printed if the cursor leaves that line because of an LF, VT, FF, or autowrap.

Printer Controller Mode
By default, each character is printed as it is received. If not selected, the character is displayed.

Print Full Page
By default, the information on the display is printed not including information stored in the transcript or status line.

Print Full Page + Transcript
By default, the information in the transcript followed by the information on the display is printed.

Print Scroll Region Only
By default, the information stored in the scrolling region of the display is printed.

Print Selection Only
By default, the information in the selected region of the display and transcript is printed.

Print National Characters Only
By default, only national characters are printed. Other characters are either converted to the corresponding national characters or the characters are not printed.

Graphics Printing
By default, graphics (bitmap) and text are printed.

Background Printing
By default, the graphics background color is printed.  Omitting background color saves ink and toner and maximizes printing speed.

Level 1 Sixel Graphics
By default, a sixel introducer that omits the macro parameter is selected. This option does not use the Sixel Set Attributes command to set the aspect ratio and the horizontal grid size. As a result, the sixel aspect ratio is 2 to 1 and the horizontal grid size is approximately 188 x 0.025 mm (7.5 x 0.001 inches).

Level 2 Sixel Graphics
By default, a sixel aspect ratio of 1 to 1 with a variable grid size is printed using the Sixel Set Attributes command (available with Level 2 printers).

LA210 Sixel Graphics
By default, a sixel introducer with the 9-macro parameter is selected. This results in a sixel aspect ratio of 1.02 to 1.

Compressed Graphics Printing
By default, a compressed graphics image is printed. In Portrait mode, the output fits on an 8 x 5 inch page.

Expanded Graphics Printing
By default, an expanded image is printed. In Portrait mode, the image fits on a 13-inch page.

HLS Color Syntax
By default, the HLS Color Syntax option specifies hue, lightness, and saturation (HLS).

RGB Color Syntax
By default, the RGB Color Syntax option selects a red, green, and blue (RGB) format when printed.

X DEFAULTS

The dxterm application uses the values in the .Xdefaults file when you logged in and uses the appropriate resource specification to customize the appearance or characteristics of its displayed dxterm window.  The format for a resource specification in the .Xdefaults file is:

[name.]resource:  value

nameSpecifies the application name or the name string that restricts the resource assignment to that application or to a component of an application.  If this argument is not specified, the resource assignment is globally available to all X applications. 

resourceSpecifies the X resource. 

valueSpecifies the value that is to be assigned to the resource. 

In most cases, the period (.) delimiter should be replaced by an asterisk (*).  For more information, see X(1X). 

Because each toolkit-based application can consist of a combination of widgets (for example, push buttons and a scroll bar), you can form the name string by adding widget class and name identifiers to the string. 

For dxterm, the application class is DXterm and the application name is the name that was specified on the command line (usually dxterm). 

For dxterm, the available name identifier is terminal.  This name identifier specifies the work area of the dxterm window. 

In addition to the general resources listed in X(1X), the resources available for the dxterm work area are:

adjustFontSizes
Specifies that dxterm selects the normal or condensed font based on the number of columns selected.  The default is On. 

allowShellResize
If On, the program can change the size of the dxterm window.  If Off, you can specify a fixed size with the geometry specification.  However, DECterm always turns on this resource even if you have turned it off, because DECterm resizes its window according to the font, the number of rows, and the number of columns. 

angleBracketsKey
Specifies the mapping of the angle brackets (<>) key.  Zero maps the key to AngleBrackets (0); 1 maps it to OpenQuoteTilde (1).  The default is 0.

bitPlanes
Controls the number of bit planes used for graphics; 2 planes are needed for VT240 emulation and 4 planes for VT340 emulation.  The default is 0, which means to use 2 planes on systems with fewer than 8 hardware planes, and 4 planes on systems with 8 or more hardware planes.
