showeva.pl - The EVA browser, version 0.4 beta
perl showeva.pl [OPTIONS] [FILESPEC]
This is a browser for extracted Voynich MS transcriptions, designed
to be used together with viat.pl
.
The extracted text can be viewed in a nice GUI interface.
This program accepts mainly the GNU long option syntax. For normal usage, there is no need for options at all, but sometimes you may find them nice.
Everything you can set as an option, you can change at runtime by using the GUI.
--help
or -h
or -?
--locators
or --nolocators
--evafont
or --noevafont
--special
or --nospecial
--coments
or --nocomments
viat.pl
tool with the -M
option. By defualt, the comments are
displayed.
--inline
or --noinline
If there is no specification, no file is read. You can select a file
in the File
menu.
If exactly one filename is given on the command line, the file will be loaded and displayed in the GUI.
If the filename is a single dash, the file is read from the standard input, so you can use the EVA browser in a pipe.
There are no known bugs at the moment. Some minor bugs from the 0.02 beta version are fixed, some new bugs may occur instead of them.
The program was meant to be experimental, and the source is a mess. It may be hard to add additional features.
It should be possible to generate viat.pl
output using a nice gui
and to save the generated text.
