replaces ``search string'' by ``replacement'' in the file ``source.odt'', highlights each replacement with a yellow (default) backgound, then writes the resulting document as ``target.odt''
odfhighlight ``myfile.odt'' ``search string'' -color ``green''
highlights each occurrence of ``search string'' in ``myfile.odt'' with a green background color, without changing the text (without ``-o'' option, the changes apply to ``myfile.odt''
-e --encoding "xxxxxx"
character set to use, if different from the default
-r --replacement "new string"
"new string" is used as a replacement for "search string"
-c --color "code"
an RGB color code, expressed either as the concatenation of
3 comma-separated decimal values (each one in the range
0..255, ex: "72,61,139" for a dark slate blue), or a 6-digit
hexadecimal number, preceded by a "#" (ex: #00ff00 for green)
or, if a colormap is available and known in your
OpenOffice::OODoc installation, a symbolic color name (ex:
"sky blue")
-s --stylename "name"
the name of the color style (default: "MyHighlight"); the
user must provide a style name that is not already in use
in the document
-p --property "property=value"
This option can be repeated; each occurrence gives an
additional property for the highlight style (font name, size,
foreground color, ...). For example, with the combination of
-p 'fo:color=#ff0000' and -p 'fo:font-size=18pt', the
highlighted text will be made of 18pt-sized, red characters.
In order to master these options, you should have some
knowledge of the Form Objects (FO) vocabulary that is used
in the OpenDocument specification.
-o --output "filename"
-t --target "filename"
an alternative filename to save the modified document, when
the source document must remain unchanged
