Cursor-mode

         

This mode is indicated by a pirate-cursor \epsffile {pictures/pirate.ps}
in the tv-root window. It allows you to shortcut commands by using ``hotkeys'' which are displayed in the tvkeys-window when pressed. Keys you press in graphic-pane of tv-root are looked up in the hotkey-table (see section 3.11 p. [*]) and the bound commands are executed as soon as the hotkey-combination is definite. As an example the following commands are bound to key f:

tv > window view full both; tv > window view expand;

and when you press it in the graphic-pane, the viewport is expanded to full size. If you press ``?'' (question mark) in this mode a list of all hotkeys is printed in the text-window.
