helpmidas - Standalone GUI help for MIDAS.

helpmidas starts a standalone GUI help for MIDAS.

       Without  arguments,  helpmidas  initiates  a  MIDAS help session with default definitions.  Some of these
       definitions can be modified with arguments in the command line of helpmidas or by environment  variables.
       Arguments in the command line are taken with preference to environment variables.

helpmidas can also use the following definitions in the environment with the same performance as previous
       described arguments.

       MIDASHOME
              Home directory for MIDAS.

       MIDVERS
              Release of MIDAS.

       DISPLAY
              X server for the display and graphical MIDAS windows.

       MID_WORK
              Startup directory for MIDAS.

       helpmidas - Standalone GUI help for MIDAS.

helpmidas  has been configured by the operator at installation time to start the binary XHelp.exe located
       in $MIDASHOME0/$MIDVERS0/gui/execdirectory (defined  internally  in  the  script).   However  alternative
       releases can be specified using the:

       -hmidashome
              Home  directory  for  MIDAS.  Absolute pathname containing, at least, one release of MIDAS. It may
              also contain subdirectories for demo and calibration data.

       -rmidvers
              Release of MIDAS to be executed. It must be a subdirectory under midashome.-ddisplay
              Specifies another X server for the display and graphical MIDAS windows ( NOTE: be aware of allowed
              access to a remote X server using the xhost(1) command.)

       -mmid_work
              Specifies the MIDAS  startup  directory  (default:  $HOME/midwork).  This  GUI  will  create  this
              directory if it does not exist and uses in to keep some temporary files.
