The axinfo command
==================

`axinfo' is a standalone application for browsing aXe's information
system.  If it is not already running aXe starts it up when an item is
selected form the Help menu. Note: InfoReader explains how axinfo can
be used to read other documentation created using Texinfo.

The `axinfo' command has the following form:-

     axinfo [-node node] [-rows rows] [-columns columns] [-tree] [file]

With no options axinfo creates the Hypertext window (Note: HyperText)
displaying the *Top* node.

-node node
     permits a named node within the help system to be displayed on
     startup. The names which can be specified are the words which
     appear highlighted in the text of the help.

     Example:
          axinfo -node 'AxinfoCmd' axe.info

     would start up `axinfo' with the text you are looking at now
     displayed.

-rows rows
     permits the height of the hypertext window to be specified.  Note:
     CustomAxinfo has more information.

-columns columns
     permits the width of the hypertext window to be specified.  Note:
     CustomAxinfo has more information.

-tree
     causes the tree window (Note: Tree) to be created. The hypertext
     window (Note: HyperText) is not created unless a node is
     specified using the `-node' option. This option is ignored under
     versions of X prior to Release 5.

file
     is the name of the Texinfo file containing the information to be
     browsed. It is only required if `axinfo' is not being used to read
     the documentation for aXe (Note: InfoReader).
