fv: Sample Scripts

The sample_scripts directory contains sample scripts which can be used to control what fv does. Details are available within fv's scripting help file. The supported languages/techniques include:

Method Description
fv Script executed directly within fv
XPA:

C C program making calls to XPA's subroutine library
csh Unix csh script running XPA's xpaset/xpaget programs

The three XPA scripts are only available to Unix users who have built their own version of XPA (available from SAO/HEAD R&D Group). The AppleScript script is only available for Mac users. The native fv Tcl sample -- TclScript.fv -- can be run on any platform. See each individual script for details on usage.
