-.TH EMACSTOOL 1
-.SH NAME
-.I emacstool 
-\- run emacs under Sun windows with function-key and mouse support.
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.I emacstool
-[{window_args} {-rc run_command_path} args ... ]
-.SH TYPICAL USAGE
-In ~/.suntools or ~/.rootmenu include a line like this:
-.br
-"Emacstool"     emacstool -WI emacs.icon -f emacstool-init
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-.B  Emacstool
-creates a SunView frame and a tty subwindow within which mouse events
-and function keys are translated to ASCII sequences which Emacs can
-parse.  The translated input events are sent to the process running in
-the tty subwindow, which is typically GNU Emacs.  Emacstool thereby
-allows GNU Emacs users to make full use of the mouse and function keys.
-GNU Emacs can be loaded with functions to interpret the mouse and
-function-key events to make a truly fine screen oriented editor for
-the Sun Workstation.
-.PP
-(Note that GNU Emacs has a special interface to the X window system as
-well.  The X window system has many technical advantages, it is an
-industry standard, and it is also free software.  The Free Software
-Foundation urges you to try X windows, and distributes a free copy of
-X on Emacs distribution tapes.)
-.PP
-Function keys are translated to a sequence of the form
-`^X*[a-o][lrt]'.  The last character is `l', `r', or `t' corresponding
-to whether the key is among the Left, Right, or Top function keys.
-The third character indicates which button of the group
-was pressed.  Thus, the function key in the lower right corner will
-transmit the sequence `^X*or'.  In addition, the [lrt] is affected by
-the Control, Meta, and Shift keys.  Unshifted Control keys will be
-non-alphabetic: C-l is [,], C-r is [2], C-t is [4].
-.PP 
-Mouse buttons are encoded as `^X^@([124] x y)\\n'.  ^X^@ is the
-standard GNU Emacs mouse event prefix, it is followed by a list
-indicating the button pressed and the character row and column of the
-point in the window where the mouse cursor is, and followed by a
-newline character.  In GNU Emacs, the ^X^@ dispatches to a
-mouse event handler which then reads the following list.
-.SH OPTIONS
-.B Emacstool
-supports all the standard window arguments, including font and icon 
-specifiers.  
-.PP
-By default, Emacstool runs the program 
-.I emacs
-in the created subwindow.  
-The value of the environment variable 
-.I EMACSTOOL
-can be used to override this if your version of 
-.B Emacs
-is not accessible on your search path by the name 
-.I Emacs.
-In addition, the run command can be set by the 
-.I pathname 
-following the last occurrence of the
-.I \-rc
-flag.
-This is convenient for using Emacstool to run on remote machines.
-.PP
-All other command line arguments not used by the window system are passed
-as arguments to the program that runs in the Emacstool window.
-.PP
-For example: 
-.PP
-local% (emacstool -rc rlogin remote -8 &)&
-.PP
-will create an Emacstool window logged in to a machine named
-.I remote.
-If Emacs is run from this window, 
-Emacstool will encode mouse and function keys, and send them to rlogin.
-If Emacs is run from this shell on the remote machine, it will see
-the mouse and function keys properly.
-However, since the remote host does not have access to the screen,
-the cursor cannot be changed, menus will not appear, and the selection
-buffer (STUFF) is limited.
-.SH Using With GNU Emacs:
-The GNU Emacs files
-lisp/term/sun.el,
-lisp/sun-mouse.el, 
-lisp/sun-fns.el, 
-and 
-src/sunfns.c
-provide emacs support for the Emacstool and function keys.
-Emacstool will automatically set the TERM environment variable to be "sun"
-and unset the environment variable TERMCAP.  That is, these variables will
-not be inherited from the shell that starts Emacstool.
-Since the terminal type is
-.I SUN
-(that is, the environment variable TERM is set to 
-.I SUN), 
-Emacs will automatically load the file lisp/term/sun.
-This, in turn, will ensure that sun-mouse.el is autoloaded when any mouse
-events are detected.  It is suggested that 
-.I sun-mouse 
-and
-.I sun-fns
-be loaded in your site-init.el file, so that they will always be loaded
-when running on a Sun workstation.
-.PP
-In addition, Emacstool sets the environment variable IN_EMACSTOOL = "t".
-Lisp code in your ~/.emacs can use (getenv "IN_EMACSTOOL")
-to determine whether to do Emacstool specific initialization.
-Sun.el uses this to automatically call emacstool-init (getenv "IN_EMACSTOOL")
-is defined.
-.PP
-The file src/sunfns.c defines several useful functions for emacs on
-the Sun.  Among these are procedures to pop-up SunView 
-.I menus, 
-put and get from the SunView
-.I STUFF
-buffer, and a procedure for changing the cursor 
-.I icon.
-If you want to define or edit cursor icons, 
-there is a rudimentary mouse driven icon editor in the file
-lisp/sun-cursors.el.  Try invoking (sc:edit-cursor)
-.SH BUGS
-It takes a few milliseconds to create a menu before it pops up.
