13Mupdisp and Mupprnt utility programs
14</H2>
15<P>
16If you are using Ghostscript, but prefer to not use Mupmate,
17there are two utility programs included with
18Mup for displaying and printing music.
19<BR><PRE>
20mupdisp <I>Mup_options myfile</I>
21</PRE><BR>
22will display music to your screen, while
23<BR><PRE>
24mupprnt <I>Mup_options myfile</I>
25</PRE><BR>
26will print the output to your printer.
27See the installation instructions for more details on configuring the
28Mupprnt program for your printer.
29</P>
30<P>
31The <I>Mup_options</I> can be any of the options listed in the
32section on
33<A HREF="cmdargs.html">"Command line arguments"</A>
34except -C, -E, -f, -F, -m, -M, -r, or -v, which don't
35send PostScript output to the standard output.

38The Mupdisp program allows you to view pages in any order, with either a
39version small enough to fit on your screen or a near-actual-size version
40that you can scroll if it doesn't fit on your screen.
41Mupdisp will run under MS-DOS/Windows or will run under
42UNIX with TERM of AT386, linux, or xterm (under X windows).

45Mupdisp begins in partial page mode,
46which displays output at approximately actual size (depending
47on the size of your monitor). In this mode, it is possible that
48not all of the page fits on the
49screen, so the scrolling commands can be used to move up and down to view
50different parts of the page. In full page mode, a small version of the
51entire page is displayed. This is useful
52for seeing overall page layout, but is generally too small to see much detail.
53This mode is now somewhat of a relic of the days when screens were typically
54much smaller than they are today, and is thus becoming less useful.
55</P>
56<P>
57Once the music has been drawn on the screen, you can enter various commands
58to view different pages or parts of the current page.
59The commands are:
60<DL>
61<DT><I>num</I> &lt;Enter&gt;
62<DD>
63Go to page number <I>num</I>.
64<DT>+ or &lt;space&gt; or &lt;control-E&gt; or &lt;control-F&gt;
65<DD>
66move forward on the page by about 1/8 of an inch
67(partial page mode only)
68<DT>- or &lt;backspace&gt; or &lt;control-Y&gt; or &lt;control-B&gt;
69<DD>
70move backward on the page by about 1/8 of an inch
71(partial page mode only)
72<DT>b or &lt;control-U&gt; or &lt;control-P&gt;

101When in X windows, the mouse can be used for scrolling. The left button scrolls
102downward like the f command, while the right button scrolls backwards like
103the b command.
