| Not yet. Currently the mechanism for producing Bookreader files
involves an unreleased backend to Vax Document.
I would suggest that you
a) get in touch with Marian star::Weisenfeld to express your
customers interest. (They may be able to be a FT site?)
b)Look at doing a PSS COntract to do their documentation for them.
Future support for other input sources to the bookreader, such as
interleaf or DECWrite, will be evaluated in time...

| I have a (new) file produced (properly, I assume), NOW how do it add
it to a shelf? The "open shelf" option under the control menu is
never lit!

| I use a text editor and edit the .DECW$BOOKSHELF file.

| Here's how I added DECwrite documentation...
There is a file that must reside in DECW$BOOK called LIBRARY.DECW$BOOKSHELF.
This file contains entries in the format:
type\filespec\title
'type' can be either SHELF or BOOK depending upon what type of
entry this is.
'filespec' is the name of the file that is being referenced.
'title' is the title that will display on the initial screen.
For example:
BOOK\DECWRITE_REFERENCE.DECW$BOOK\DECwrite Reference
for a book or
SHELF\VMS_DECW_PROGRAMMING.decw$bookshelf\VMS DECwindows Programming Subkit
for a shelf (which has entries in the same format pointing to other books).
What I did was to copy LIBRARY.DECW$BOOKSHELF from ADVISE$DUB0:[DECW$BOOK] into
my SYS$LOGIN directory - since I can't edit files on the CD ;-). I then added
the three entries that seemed applicable from SYS$COMMON:[DECW$BOOK] and set
the protection on the files to W:RE. The resulting file looks like this:
BOOK\AA-BOOKS-AA.DECW$BOOK\Using the Bookreader
BOOK\AA-LA95A-TE.decw$book\Overview of VMS Documentation
SHELF\VMS_BASE.decw$bookshelf\VMS Base Documentation Set
SHELF\VMS_DECW_USER.decw$bookshelf\VMS DECwindows User Documentation Set
SHELF\VMS_GENERAL_USER.decw$bookshelf\VMS General User Subkit
SHELF\VMS_SYSTEM_MANAGEMENT.decw$bookshelf\VMS System Management Subkit
SHELF\VMS_PROGRAMMING.decw$bookshelf\VMS Programming Subkit
SHELF\VMS_DECW_PROGRAMMING.decw$bookshelf\VMS DECwindows Programming Subkit
SHELF\VMS_OPTIONAL.decw$bookshelf\VMS Optional Manuals
BOOK\AA-MG16A-TE.decw$book\VMS Version 5.1 Release Notes
BOOK\AA-MG29A-TE.decw$book\VMS Version 5.1 New Features Manual
BOOK\AA-MG15A-TE.decw$book\VMS Version 5.1 Installation Guide
BOOK\AA-LB25A-TE.decw$book\VMS Obsolete Features Manual
SHELF\LANGUAGES.DECW$BOOKSHELF\VAX Languages Documentation
SHELF\DBMS.DECW$BOOKSHELF\VAX DBMS Documentation
BOOK\DECWRITE_QUICK_LOOKUP.DECW$BOOK\DECwrite Quick Lookup
BOOK\DECWRITE_REFERENCE.DECW$BOOK\DECwrite Reference
BOOK\DECWRITE_USERS_GUIDE.DECW$BOOK\DECwrite User's Guide
Following this, I re-defined the logical DECW$BOOK to be a search list like
this:
show log decw$book
"DECW$BOOK" = "SYS$LOGIN" (LNM$JOB_809145E0)
= "ADVISE$DUB0:[DECW$BOOK]"
= "SYS$COMMON:[DECW$BOOK] "
1 "SYS$LOGIN" = "D_PFM:[LEVY]" (LNM$JOB_809145E0)
"DECW$BOOK" = "ADVISE$DUB0:[DECW$BOOK]" (LNM$SYSTEM_TABLE)
"DECW$BOOK" = "SYS$COMMON:[DECW$BOOK]" (DECW$LOGICAL_NAMES)
Starting up the bookreader then works just dandy!
