Oleo

6.3 Other Options

auto

In auto mode, cells whose values may have changed are automatically recalculated. (Default)

noauto

In noauto mode, cells are only recalculated when the recalculate command is used.

bkgrnd

background

In background mode, automatic recalculation is done while the spreadsheet waits for you to type a key (and stops while the key is being handled). (Default)

nobkgrnd

nobackground

In nobackground mode, Oleo performs all its recalculation before listening for keystrokes.

backup

In backup mode, whenever the spreadsheet writes out a file, if the file already exists, a backup copy is made (like emacs). (Default)

nobackup

A backup copy is not made.

bkup_copy

In bkup_copy mode, backup files are made by copying the original file, instead of renaming it.

nobkup_copy

In nobackup mode bkup_copy is ignored. (Default)

ticks

This value controls how often should rnd(), cell(), my(), curcell(), etc cells get updated. This value is in seconds. (19) The initial value is 10, meaning once every 10 seconds.

print

This is the width of the page for the print command. The initial value is the width of the screen.

file

(20) If -DUSE_DLD was defined, format-name may be any .o file that contains definitions for the appropriate functions, or 'panic', which is the only file format that Oleo will have compiled into it. If -DUSE_DLD was not defined, format-name must be one of sylk, sc, panic, or list, and Oleo will have to be re-compiled before any other formats may be used.

load (file-name)

(21)This option is only avaliable if Oleo was compiled with -DUSE_DLD. This option loads in a .o file of spreadsheet functions, keyboard commands, and/or keymaps. Spreadsheet functions and keyboard commands must be loaded in before they can be used in expressions or bound to keys.
