EHypView 1.29
The family's GEM look and keys (the AERA guidelines, after a tester's report; 27 Oct 2026).
Keys
- ^U closes the window in front; ^W puts EHypView's next window in front, the viewers in turn and then the library, as Thing, Gemini and MagiC's desktop have them. With one window open ^W does nothing. In the accessory ^U closes its window. Until now ^W closed a window too.
- Esc empties a text field, as in every GEM program. In the library Esc empties the search and the window stays. In Settings Esc empties the folder field the cursor is in; Undo, Cancel or the closer cancel the dialog. Where no field has the cursor, Esc still cancels, and it still closes alerts.
Look
- No 3D setting any more. Dialogs and alerts are in 3D wherever the system draws 3D (TOS 4, MagiC, N.AES, XaAES, EmuTOS in colour), as every other program's. The 3D dialogs tick is gone from Settings. A
DIALOGS3D=line inEHYPVIEW.INFis ignored and left out the next time the file is written. - Pop-ups open over their buttons (START= and the library's layout in Settings), with the choice shown ticked.
- The library's Two panes layout: the panes meet with one line, the Subjects bar's own edge, where there was a double line. Open and Index are the system's own buttons, 3D where it draws 3D.
Fixed
- In the library, a word found only inside a page's name ("viewer" in "The viewer") left Search the full text chosen, so Return searched the full text instead of opening the page found (since 1.28).
With other programs
- The AERA programs' Help key now asks the viewer named by
STGUIDEfirst. If you read hypertexts with another viewer, name it in the system's environment asSTGUIDE: the guide's "With other programs" page says how.
