CONFIGURATION FILE

If the ~/.pdfcuberc file exists, it is used as a configuration file. The configuration file uses the same options as the command line (using the boost program options syntax). e.g.

demo=true
bgcolor=0:0:0
program=5:p

EXAMPLES

pdfcube foo.pdf

Will display 'foo.pdf' in full-screen.

pdfcube --demo --program 5:c foo.pdf

Will display 'foo.pdf' in full-screen and will do a cube transition every 5 seconds.

pdfcube foo.pdf --bgcolor 0:0:0 --top-color 0.6:0.2:0.2

Will display 'foo.pdf' with custom background and cube color.

BUGS

On some systems color values are locale dependent (e.g. you may have to write 0,6 instead of 0.6)

See code.100allora.it/pdfcube/report for the bugtracker of pdfcube(1) (you should obtain an account contacting the author first). Or please report any bug to the author.
