freemind \- A Java Program for creating and viewing Mindmaps
26
This manual page documents briefly the

This manual page was written for the Debian distribution
30
because the original program does not have a manual page.
31
Instead, it has documentation as a mindmap (see help menu).

\fBfreemind\fP is a program that allows to create and view so-called
37
Mind Maps, as well as export them to HTML.

This program does not have any option. Just start it!

If this environment variable is set, freemind gives more information on how it
45
finds its different elements.

Default value for the java virtual machine (the \fBjava\fP command).
49
If $\fBJAVACMD\fP is not set, the java virtual machine is searched under
50
$\fBJAVA_BINDIR\fP\fI/java\fP.
52
If $\fBJAVACMD\fP and $\fBJAVA_BINDIR\fP are not set, the java virtual machine
53
is searched under $\fBJAVA_HOME\fP\fI/bin/java\fP.
55
If all $\fBJAVA\fP... environment variables fail, the java virtual machine
56
command (\fBjava\fP) is searched in the $\fBPATH\fP (with \fBwhich\fP).
59
The $\fBCLASSPATH\fP variable also lets one specify additional jars,
60
which is good, if you want to add a new Look&Feel jar (the motif one is so
61
ugly...). Alternatively, the content of $\fBADD_JARS\fP will be prepended to

and \fI~/.freemind/freemindrc\fP, so that specific settings are possible at

machine and user level.

If all searches through environment variables fail, the java virtual machine
73
is expected to be \fI/usr/bin/java\fP;
74
if not, \fBfreemind\fP exits with an error.
