Global Commands

$VER: <AmigaDOS version string>
     Specify an Amiga standard version string.  "VER" must be uppercase.
     The format for an Amiga version string is:  <name> (mm/dd/yy).  If you
     have this in your Amigaguide file, you can use the AmigaDOS command
     "Version" to get the string.

(C) <copyright>
     Specify a copyright notice for this file.

AUTHOR <name>
     Specify the author of this file.

DATABASE <name>
     Identifies this file as an Amigaguide document.  Must be the very first
     thing in the file!

DNODE <name>
     This is an obsolete command, do not use.  It used to be for indicating
     a "dynamic node", but is not needed because the Amigaguide system will
     search for a node that doesn't exist, at which point a dynamic node
     host can return the node.

ENDNODE
     Specify the end of a hypertext node definition.

FONT <name> <size>
     Specify the font to use for the database.

HEIGHT <rows>
     The number of rows in the largest node.

HELP  
     Specify a help node accessible with the "Help" button.

INDEX <path/node>
     Specify an index node accessible with the "Index" button.

MACRO <name> <commands>
     Define a macro for this document.  A macro is made up of attribute
     commands and or other macros, and is used like other attributes.  A
     macro can override the built in attributes.  A macro can accept
     arguments by embeding a '$' symbol with a number, for each argument
     supported; IE, '$1', '$2', etc.  If an argument is given when using
     the macro, but is not defined in the macro, then it simply doesn't
     appear, which might be usefull to somebody.  V40.

	     Example:

              @macro bold "\ $1 \"
                ...
          
              This is an example of a \@{bold "bold"} macro.

MASTER <path>
     Specifies the AmigaDOS file path of the original document this
     Amigaguide file was derived from.

NODE <name> <title>
     Specify the beginning of a hypertext node definition.

ONCLOSE <rxcommand>
     Specify an ARexx script to execute when this document is closed.  The
     script's return value is not significant.  V40.

ONOPEN <rxcommand>
     Specify an ARexx script to execute when this document is opened.  The
     document will not be opened if the script returns an error.  V40.

REM <remark>
REMARK <remark>
     Used to place a remark in the document which is not displayed.

SMARTWRAP
     A more inteligent word wrapping algorithm than WORDWRAP.  Paragraphs
     must be separated by two line feeds (visualy, a blank line).  V40.

TAB <num>
     Define the size in spaces of a tab.  Defaults to 8.  V40.

WIDTH <chars>
     The number of columns in the largest node.

WORDWRAP
     Use wordwrapping for all paragraphs.  To be wordwrapped, the paragraph
     must have no line feeds.  V39.  Since this is ugly to work with, and
     ugly to look at in Amigaguide 2.x and lower, you should use SMARTWRAP
     and write your Amigaguide files to look wordwrapped - this makes your
     document look decent on all systems while taking advantage of V40 and
     above since SMARTWRAP will be ignored on pre-V40 Amiga's.
