  11 @page page_utils Utilities supplied with wxWidgets
  12
  13 In addition to the wxWidgets libraries (see @ref page_libs), some utilities
  14 are available to the users in the @c utils hierarchy (even if some of them are
  15 explicitely coinceived for wxWidgets maintainance and will probably be of
  16 little use to others).
  17
  18 Please note that these utilities do represent only the utilities developed
  19 and maintained by the wxWidgets team.
  20 There are lots of other user-contributed and user-maintained packages;
  21 see the wxWidgets download page: http://www.wxwidgets.org/downloads
  22 or directly http://wxcode.sourceforge.net or http://www.wxcommunity.com/ .

  35 @section page_utils_emulator Emulator
  36
  37 Xnest-based display emulator for X11-based PDA applications.
  38
  39 <!-- On some systems, the Xnest window does not synchronise with the
  40 'skin' window. THIS ISN'T THE PLACE FOR THIS STATEMENT I THINK -->
  41
  42 This program can be found in @c utils/emulator.
  43
  44
  45 @section page_utils_helpgen Helpgen
  46
  47 Helpgen takes C++ header files and generates a Tex2RTF-compatible
  48 documentation file for each class it finds, using comments as appropriate.
  49 This is a good way to start a reference for a set of classes.
  50
  51 Helpgen can be found in @c utils/HelpGen.
  52
  53
  54 @section page_utils_helpview Helpview
  55
  56 Helpview is a program for displaying wxWidgets HTML
  57 Help files. In many cases, you may wish to use the wxWidgets HTML
  58 Help classes from within your application, but this provides a
  59 handy stand-alone viewer. See @ref overview_html for more details.
  60
  61 You can find Helpview in @c utils/helpview.
  62
  63
  64 @section page_utils_hhp2cached HHP2Cached
  65
  66 This utility creates a "cached" version of a @c .hhp file; using cached @c .hhp
  67 files in wxHtmlHelpController can drammatically improve the performances
  68 of the help viewer. See wxHtmlHelpController for more details.
  69
  70 You can find HHP2Cached in @c utils/helpview.
  71
  72
  73 @section page_utils_tex2rtf Tex2RTF
  74
  75 Supplied with wxWidgets is a utility called Tex2RTF for
  76 converting @e LaTeX manuals HTML, MS HTML Help, wxHTML Help, RTF, and Windows
  77 Help RTF formats. Tex2RTF was used for the wxWidgets manuals and can be used
  78 independently by authors wishing to create on-line and printed manuals from the
  79 same @e LaTeX source. Please see the separate documentation for Tex2RTF.
  80
  81 You can find it under @c utils/tex2rtf.
  82
  83
  84 @section page_utils_wxrc WxRC
  85
  86 This utility allows the user to compile @e binary versions of their XRC files,
  87 which are compressed and can be loaded faster than plain XRC files.
  88 See @ref overview_xrc for more info.
  89
  90 You can find it under @c utils/wxrc.
