Beware, there's no \*(L"undo\*(R" operation. .IP "\(bu" 4 Before saving your modifications, you can review the change list with the menu entry \f(CW\*(C`File \-> show unsaved changes\*(C'\fR. This list is cleared after performing a \f(CW\*(C`File \-> save\*(C'\fR. .IP "\(bu" 4 Pasting cut buffer into: .RS 4 .IP "\(bu" 4 a leaf element will store the content of the buffer into the element. .IP "\(bu" 4 a list element will split the content of the buffer with /\en/ or /,/ and push the resulting array at the end of the list element. .IP "\(bu" 4 a hash element will use the content of the cut buffer to create a new key in the hash element. .RE .RS 4 .RE .SS "Font size and big screens" .IX Subsection "Font size and big screens" Font type and size can be adjusted using menu: \*(L"Options \-> Font\*(R" menu. This setup is saved in file \&\f(CW\*(C`~/.cme/config/tkui.yml\*(C'\fR. .SS "Search" .IX Subsection "Search" Hit \f(CW\*(C`Ctrl\-F\*(C'\fR or use menu \f(CW\*(C`Edit \-> Search\*(C'\fR to open a search widget at the bottom of the window. .PP Enter a keyword in the entry widget and click on \f(CW\*(C`Next\*(C'\fR button. .PP The keyword will be searched in the configuration tree, in element name, in element value and in documentation. .SS "Editor widget" .IX Subsection "Editor widget" The right side of the widget is either a viewer or an editor. When clicking on store in the editor, the new data is stored in the tree represented on the left side of TkUI. The new data will be stored in the configuration file only when \f(CW\*(C`File\-\*(C'\fRsave> menu is invoked. .SS "Wizard" .IX Subsection "Wizard" A wizard can be launched either with \f(CW\*(C`File \-> Wizard\*(C'\fR menu entry or with \f(CW\*(C`Run Wizard\*(C'\fR button. .PP The wizard will scan the configuration tree and stop on all items flagged as important in the model. It will also stop on all erroneous items (mostly missing mandatory values). .SH "Methods" .IX Header "Methods" .SS "save(callback)" .IX Subsection "save(callback)" Save modified data in configuration file. The callback function is called only if the save was done without error. The callback is called with \f(CW$@\fR in case of failed save. .SH "TODO" .IX Header "TODO" \&\- add tabular view ? \&\- expand the whole tree at once \&\- add plug-in mechanism so that dedicated widget can be used for some config Class (Could be handy for Xorg::ServerLayout) .SH "More information" .IX Header "More information" .IP "\(bu" 4 See Config::Model home page .IP "\(bu" 4 Or Author's blog where you can find many post about Config::Model. .SH "FEEDBACK and HELP wanted" .IX Header "FEEDBACK and HELP wanted" This project needs feedback from its users.
