NAME
texshow - ConTeXt command and parameter reference
SYNOPSIS
texshow [ OPTION ] [ COMMAND ] [ LANGUAGE ]
DESCRIPTION
texshow uses perl(1) and PerlTk (see Tk(3pm)) to show a overview of the
commands and parameters of those. In the Tk window you can search for
a command and by switching the interface, you can see the equivalent in
another interface language.
COMMAND is a ConTeXt command to search for in the database. Note that
Plain TeX commands are not (yet) in this database although they can be
used in ConTeXt source files.
LANGUAGE can be one of cz (Czech), de (German), en (US-English) or nl
(Dutch). The default language is English.
You can also set the interface language with the --interface switch.
BINDINGS
Most keyboard events are bound to the search widget, with the exception of <Page Up> (aka <Prior>) and <Page Down> (aka <Next>). <Control-q>, <Control-x>, and <Alt-F4> quit the application.
