Defining a display template

To define a display template, proceed as follows:

●Open the .Xprint V7.0 file in your login directory.

●Enter the new display template as follows: display_template parameter_list

display_template is the name of the template under which the display template will be called with the xpshow ... -didisplay_template command.

parameter_list represents a list of options of the xpshow -jobcommand. Here you use exactly the same options as described under “Displaying attributes via parameter list” on the previous page.

Your system administrator can also define display templates. These are saved in the .Xprint V7.0 file in the /var/spool/Xprint/config directory. This file is searched if the template is not found in your private

.Xprint V7.0 file.

Further display settings

By means of environment variables which you set before calling the display template, you can define various characteristics of the display:

XP_FS:

With this variable you define the character which is to be used to separate the horizontal fields. If you do not specify a value, a tab space is set by default.

XP_FW:

This variable defines the field size in characters. If you explicitly specify a value, e.g. 10 characters, the entries exceeding this length will be truncated. If you specify 0, the values will not be truncated but displayed in full. The default is 7 (characters).

XP_LS:

With this variable you define the separator to be used to separate values within one field. If this variable is not set, the space character is used by default.
