Starting Control
Control is not a program, but rather a group of programs. However, users need a starting point to display menus and choose the appropriate program to run.
There are a few "startup" programs
- Control Menubar
- $CCDIR/std/binx11/ccmenubar
- Displays a bar on the top of the screen with the menu options on it
- When user clicks on the menu option, either the sub-menu options will appear or the associated program will be run
- Control POS
- $CCDIR/std/binx11/start
- Shows window with the menu options displayed as a list of buttons in the middle of the screen
- Control Explorer (No longer supported)
- $CCDIR/std/binx11/ccexplore
- Shows window that displays menu structure as a "tree view"
- Control Navigator (No longer supported)
- $CCDIR/std/binx11/control
- Displays a small button in bottom-left corner of the screen
- Clicking on button displays the top-level menu, similar to Control Menubar
If the GUI environment is using FVWM, the Control startup program will be run at startup is controlled by /etc/system.fvwm2rc
