8.4 - Sample Project Styles

Here are the project styles I'm using for this manual. If you look them over, you'll notice I redacted the path on my local server that points to my images; that's because it would reveal part of my internal server path structure, which no one needs to know. I created the redaction by generating the project styles into a variable named xlatedglobalstyles using the technique described here, then did this in the Page Content:

[replace privatestuff,{orange [i redacted]},[v xlatedglobalstyles]]

Here's the resulting redacted style content:

Pretty-printing setup for hlit, vlit and slit:
==============================================
[global ppre_lb <span style="color:#FFFF00;"><big><b>] Opening square brace
[global ppos_lb </b></big></span><span style="color:#AAAAAA;">]

[global ppre_rb </span><span style="color:#FFFF00;"><big><b>] Closing square brace
[global ppos_rb </b></big></span>]

[global ppre_ls <span style="color:#FF0000;"><big><b>] Opening squiggly brace

[global ppre_cqu </span><span style="color:#FFFFFF;"><big><b>] Closing quote
[global ppos_cqu </b></big></span>]

Here's a nice blue container for the pretty-printed content
===========================================================
[gstyle cpad 1em]
[gstyle codediv
<div style="
background: #000088;
color: #00ff00;
margin-bottom: {cpad};
padding: {cpad} {cpad} {cpad} {cpad};

Mousetrap.bind("i", onIndex_keyDown, "keydown");
Mousetrap.bind("t", onToc_keyDown, "keydown");
function onLeft_keyDown() [ls] window.location.href = "[v prevpage]"; [rs]
function onRight_keyDown() [ls] window.location.href = "[v nextpage]"; [rs]
