-.SH "NAME"
-\&\fBXPACommon: Getting Common Information About Access Points\fR
-.SH "SYNOPSIS"
-.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
-There are various kinds of generic information you can retrieve about
-an \s-1XPA\s0 access point by using the xpaget command.
-.SH "DESCRIPTION"
-.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
-You can find out which \s-1XPA\s0 access points have been registered with
-the currently running
-\&\s-1XPA\s0 name server
-by executing the
-xpaget
-command to retrieve info from the \s-1XPA\s0 name server:
-.PP
-.Vb 1
-\& xpaget xpans
-.Ve
-.PP
-If, for example, the
-stest test server program
-is running, the following \s-1XPA\s0 access points will be returned (the specifics
-of the returned info will vary for different machines and users):
-.PP
-.Vb 4
-\& XPA xpa gs 838e2f67:1262 eric
-\& XPA xpa1 gs 838e2f67:1266 eric
-\& XPA c_xpa gs 838e2f67:1267 eric
-\& XPA i_xpa i 838e2f67:1268 eric
-.Ve
-.PP
-Note that access to this information is subject to the usual
-\&\s-1XPA\s0 Access Control restrictions.
-.PP
-Each \s-1XPA\s0 access point supports a number of reserved sub-commands that provide
-access to different kinds of information, e.g. the access control for
-that access point. These sub-commands can be executed by using
-xpaset
-or
-xpaget
-at the command line, or
-\&\fIXPAGet()\fR
-or
-\&\fIXPASet()\fR
-in programs, e.g:
-.PP
-.Vb 3
-\& xpaget ds9 \-acl
-\& xpaget ds9 \-help
-\& xpaget ds9 env FOO
-\&
-\& xpaset \-p ds9 env FOO foofoo
-.Ve
-.PP
-With the exception of \fB\-help\fR and \fB\-version\fR, reserved
-sub-commands are available only on the machine on which the \s-1XPA\s0 server
-itself is running.
-.PP
-The following reserved sub-commands are defined for all access points:
-.IP "\(bu" 4
-\&\fB\-acl\fR get (set) the access control list [options: host type acl, for set]
-.Sp
-The 'xpaset' option allows you to add a new acl for a given host, or change
-the acl for an existing host. See
-\&\s-1XPA\s0 Access Control
-for more information.
-This access point is available only on the server machine.
-.IP "\(bu" 4
-\&\fB\-env\fR get (set) an environment variable [options: name (value, for set)]
-.Sp
-The 'xpaget' option will return the value of the named environment
-variable. The 'xpaset' option will set the value of the names
-variable to the specified value.
-This access point is available only on the server machine.
-(Please be advised that we have had problems setting environment
-variables in static Tcl/Tk programs such as ds9 running under Linux.)
-.IP "\(bu" 4
-\&\fB\-clipboard\fR set(get) information on a named clipboard
-.Sp
-Clients can store \s-1ASCII\s0 state information on any number of named
-clipboards. Clipboards of the same name created by clients on
-different machines are kept separate. The syntax for creating a
-clipboard is:
-.Sp
-.Vb 2
-\& [data] | xpaset [server] \-clipboard add|append [clipboard_name]
-\& xpaset \-p [server] \-clipboard delete [clipboard_name]
-.Ve
-.Sp
-Use \*(L"add\*(R" to create a new clipboard or replace the contents of an existing
-one. Use \*(L"append\*(R" to append to an existing clipboard.
-.Sp
-Information on a named clipboard is retrieved using:
-.Sp
-.Vb 1
-\& xpaget [server] \-clipboard [clipboard_name]
-.Ve
-.IP "\(bu" 4
-\&\fB\-exec\fR set: execute commands from buffer [options: none]
-.Sp
-If \-exec is specified in the paramlist of an 'xpaset' call, then further
-sub-commands will be retrieved from the data buffer.
-.IP "\(bu" 4
-\&\fB\-help\fR get: return help string for this \s-1XPA\s0 or sub-command [options: name (for sub\-commands)]
-.Sp
-Each \s-1XPA\s0 access point and each \s-1XPA\s0 sub-command can have a help string
-associated with it that is specified when the access point is defined.
-The \-help option will return this help string. For \s-1XPA\s0 access points
-that contain user-defined sub-commands, you can get the help string
-for a particular sub-command by specifying its name, or else get the
-help strings for all sub-commands if not name is specified.
-.IP "\(bu" 4
-\&\fB\-ltimeout\fR get (set) the long timeout value [options: seconds|reset]
-.Sp
-The 'xpaget' option will return the value of the long timeout (in seconds).
-The 'xpaset' option will set the value of the long timeout. If \*(L"reset\*(R" is
-specified, then the timeout value will be reset to the default value.
-.IP "\(bu" 4
-\&\fB\-nsconnect\fR set: re-establish name server connection to all \s-1XPA\s0's [options: none]
-.Sp
-If the
-\&\s-1XPA\s0 Name Server (xpans)
-process has terminated unexpectedly and then re-started, this
-sub-command can be used to re-establish the connection. You use it by
-sending the command to the [name:port] or [file] of the access point
-instead of to the \s-1XPA\s0 name (since the latter requires the xpans
-connection!):
-.Sp
-.Vb 1
-\& xpaset \-p 838e2f67:1268 \-nsconnect
-.Ve
-.Sp
-See xpans for more information.
-.IP "\(bu" 4
-\&\fB\-nsdisconnect\fR set: break name server connection to all \s-1XPA\s0's [options: none]
-.Sp
-This sub-command will terminate the connection to the
-\&\s-1XPA\s0 Name Server (xpans), thereby making
-all access points inaccessible except through their underlying [name:port]
-or [file] identifiers. I forget why we added it, it seems pretty useless.
-.IP "\(bu" 4
-\&\fB\-stimeout\fR get (set) the short timeout value [options: seconds|reset]
-.Sp
-The 'xpaget' option will return the value of the short timeout (in seconds).
-The 'xpaset' option will set the value of the short timeout. If \*(L"reset\*(R" is
-specified, then the timeout value will be reset to the default value.
-.IP "\(bu" 4
-\&\fB\-remote\fR set: register xpa with remote server [options: host[:port] [acl]] [\-proxy]
-.Sp
-This sub-command will register the \s-1XPA\s0 access point with the \s-1XPA\s0 name
-server (xpans) on the specified host (which must already be running).
-The specified host also is given access control to the access point,
-using the specified acl or the default acl of \*(L"+\*(R" (meaning the remote
-host can xpaset, xpaget, xpainfo or xpaaccess). If the acl is
-specified as \*(L"\-\*(R", then the access point is unregistered.
-See Communication Between Machines
-for more information on how this sub-command is used.
-.IP "\(bu" 4
-\&\fB\-version\fR get: return \s-1XPA\s0 version string [options: none]
-.Sp
-The version refers to the version of \s-1XPA\s0 used to define this access point
-(currently something like 2.0).
-.PP
-You can add your own reserved commands to all \s-1XPA\s0 access points by using the
-\&\fIXPACmdAdd()\fR
-routine, passing the \s-1XPA\s0 handle returned by \fI\s-1XPA\s0 XPAGetReserved(void)\fR
-as the first argument. Note again that these will only be available on the
-machine where the \s-1XPA\s0 service is running.
