AIX Version 4.3 System Management Guide: Operating System and Devices
Creating InfoExplorer Public Notes
Public notes can be read by any hypertext user. Public notes are created by merging and relocating private notes files.
Prerequisites
- You must have write access to the
/usr/lpp/info/data directory.
- You must create and save private notes to a file
in the InfoExplorer window or ASCII interface.
Procedure
Use one of the following methods to create
public notes:
- For the default InfoExplorer
library, use the mergenote command to merge private notes files into a single notes
file. Designate the /usr/lpp/info/data directory as the location of
the new public notes list.
- For public libraries other than the default,
private notes are stored in the $HOME/info/LibraryName
directory. Use the mergenote command to merge private notes files into a single
notes file. Designate the /usr/lpp/info/data/LibraryName
directory as the location of the new public notes list.
Notes:
- Private notes and note lists are saved in
the user's $HOME/info and $HOME/info/LibraryName
/notes directories.
- Public notes for the default
InfoExplorer library should be placed in the
/usr/lpp/info/data directory.
Bookmarks created by one user can be copied
for access by other hypertext users. Bookmark files are saved in the
user's $HOME/info or $HOME/info/LibraryName directory
with a .bmk extension.
Prerequisites
You must have read and write access to the
users $HOME/info directories.
Procedure
- Use the
cp command to
copy a bookmark file from one user to another.
For example, to copy bookmark file
review.bmk
in user sharon
's $HOME directory
to user donna
's $HOME directory, enter:
cd /home/sharon/info
cp review.bmk /home/donna/info
- In the InfoExplorer program, reset the
new user's default bookmark file using the Defaults Editor window.
