NAME

6       gv-update-userconfig - update ~/.gv config file
7

SYNOPSIS

9       gv-update-userconfig [filename]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       gv-update-userconfig is a simple script to update an .gv config file to
13       the current version of gv(1).
14
15       You can specify a file which is  used  instead  of  .gv  by  using  the
16       optional  filename argument. This is useful if the environment variable
17       XUSERSEARCHPATH is used.
18
19       This is done by removing all entries known to cause problems  with  the
20       current  version  of  GNU  gv (i.e. the one the version of this program
21       belongs to) and updating the version information in  that  file.   This
22       resets all problematic items back to the default values.
23
24
25       -h, --help, --usage
26              displays a short help message
27
28       -r     removes   all  resources  from  ~/.gv  that  equal  the  default
29              resources being shipped with GNU gv (ignoring whitespaces).
30
31       -n     switches to alternative navigation by adding resp. updating nav‐
32              igation resources to ~/.gv, i. e. after each page switch (except
33              if selected by the page number) the page is scrolled to top  (if
34              switching forward) resp. to the bottom (if switching backward).
35
36       -N     switches to standard navigation by adding resp. updating naviga‐
37              tion resources to ~/.gv.
38
39       -s     removes navigation resources from ~/.gv  and  therefore  enables
40              standard navigation.
41
42       -i     updates  translation file. Using the optional filename parameter
43              is strongly recommended for using this option. This option  can‐
44              not be used together with any of the other options.

BACKGROUND

49       The $(HOME)/.gv file is written by GNU gv when activating the Save but‐
50       ton in one of the configuration dialogs.
51
52       The values in there are used, if there is no display-specific  resource
53       value  (loaded  from  $(HOME)/.Xresources  at  login  time  or manually
54       xrdb(1)).
55
56       Sometimes older values miss things needed by the new  GNU  gv  to  work
57       properly.  This GNU gv will notice old (or missing) version information
58       in this file and refuse to start until fixed.
