NOTE: SOME FUNCTIONALITY EMPLOYS JAVASCRIPT WASD Web Environment – Bookreader Books and Libraries

WASD Web Environment

7.Bookreader Books and Libraries

While largely of historical interest these days, access to Bookreader format documentation (and any generated internally) is provided in the WASD web environment via two integrated scripts, HyperReader, which reads the books, and HyperShelf, which reads the Library and Shelf structures.

The HyperReader and HyperShelf scripts are automatically activated when the document file's extension is ".DECW$BOOK" and ".DECW$BOOKSHELF" respectively. Alternatively, the respective scripts may be explicitly specified (but the ability to provide a relative specification is lost).

If the server system supports Bookreader documentation collection one ot both the following links will provide an online demonstration:
