XMLterm installation instructions for Linux binaries
|
|
----------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
*NOTE 1* This is work in progress. User beware!
|
|
|
|
*NOTE 2* If this file was already present in your "package" directory,
|
|
it means that xmlterm is included in your build! You don't need
|
|
to install it. Skip steps 1 & 2 and go directly to step 3.
|
|
|
|
*NOTE 3* This plain text INSTALL file may be out date. Please check
|
|
<http://xmlterm.org/install.html> for the most recent information.

|
1. First obtain the Mozilla Linux binary tar file
|
|
ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla/releases/m14/mozilla-i686-pc-linux-gnu-M14.tar.gz"
|
|
and untar it in any convenient location. This will create a
|
|
directory named "package" containing the binaries.
|
|
|
|
2. Untar the XMLterm binary tar file "xmlterm-i686-pc-linux-gnu-M14.tar.gz"
|
|
in the "package" directory created above.
|
|
|
|
3. Type the following command in the "package" directory:
|
|
|
|
./xmlterm
|
|
|
|
"xmlterm" is shorthand for the following command, which you may also execute
|
|
directly
|
|
|
|
./mozilla -chrome chrome://xmlterm/content/xmlterm.xul
|
|
|
|
This should create an XMLTerm in the browser window. Then click on
|
|
that window with the mouse to shift focus and start typing UNIX
|
|
commands.
|
|
|
|
**NOTE**
|
|
The command prompt is assumed to be terminated by one of the characters
|
|
"#$%>?", followed by a space. If this is not the case, many features will
|
|
not work. This restriction will be relaxed in the future.
|
|
|
|
4. The command line can be edited using EMACS-style key bindings.
|
|
Command completion should also work with TCSH and BASH, as should history
|
|
recall.
|
|
|
|
5. By default, blue coloring is used to indicate clickable display elements.
|
|
Note that the prompt and the input command line are clickable.
|
|
(Of course, the appearance of XMLterm is completely configurable
|
|
using the CSS stylesheet chrome://xmlterm/skin/default/xmlterm.css)
|
|
|
|
After typing one or two commands, click on the prompt string of any
|
|
previous command to see what happens! Then click again on the same
|
|
prompt string. Also click on "Hide all output" button at the top of the
|
|
document.
|
|
|
|
Double-clicking is used to activate all XMLterm features, *except* for
|
|
command prompts and underlined hyperlinks, which are activated by a single
|
|
click as in a browser.
|
|
|
|
Double-clicking on a previous command line (to the right of the prompt)
|
|
re-executes the command. Be warned that double-clicking a command line can
|
|
profoundly affect your computing environment, depending upon what the
|
|
command is.
|
|
|
|
6. The sample Perl script "xls", the iconic/hypertext version of the Unix "ls"
|
|
command, is in the "package" directory. Also in the "package" directory
|
|
is "xcat", an XMLterm-aware version of the "cat" command.
|
|
|
|
7. To use XMLterm most efficiently, add the mozilla "package" directory
|
|
to your execution PATH variable by modifying your shell initialization file
|
|
(.profile/.cshrc). This will enable you to use commands such as
|
|
"xmlterm", "xls", and "xcat" easily.
