NAME
gv-update-userconfig - update ~/.gv config file
SYNOPSIS
gv-update-userconfig
[filename]
DESCRIPTION
gv-update-userconfig
is a simple script to update an
.gv
config file
to the current version of
gv(1).
You can specify a file which is used instead of
.gv
by using the optional filename argument. This is useful if the environment variable XUSERSEARCHPATH is used.
This is done by removing all entries known to cause problems with
the current version of GNU gv (i.e. the one the version of this program
belongs to) and updating the version information in that file.
This resets all problematic items back to the default values.
- -h, --help, --usage
-
displays a short help message
- -r
-
removes all resources from ~/.gv that equal the default resources being shipped with GNU gv (ignoring whitespaces).
- -n
-
switches to alternative navigation by adding resp. updating navigation resources
to ~/.gv, i. e. after each page switch (except if selected by the
page number) the page is scrolled to top (if switching forward) resp. to the
bottom (if switching backward).
- -N
-
switches to standard navigation by adding resp. updating navigation resources
to ~/.gv.
- -s
-
removes navigation resources from ~/.gv and therefore enables
standard navigation.
- -i
-
updates translation file. Using the optional filename parameter is strongly
recommended for using this option. This option cannot be used together with any of
the other options.
BACKGROUND
The $(HOME)/.gv file is written by GNU gv when activating the
Save button in one of the configuration dialogs.
The values in there are used, if there is no display-specific
resource value (loaded from $(HOME)/.Xresources at login time
or manually xrdb(1)).
Sometimes older values miss things needed by the new GNU gv to work properly.
This GNU gv will notice old (or missing) version information in this
file and refuse to start until fixed.

xrdb(1).
