NAME
       texshow - ConTeXt command and parameter reference


SYNOPSIS
       texshow [ OPTION ] [ COMMAND ] [ LANGUAGE ]


DESCRIPTION
       texshow uses perl(1) and PerlTk (see Tk(3pm)) to show a overview of the
       commands and parameters of those.  In the Tk window you can search  for
       a command and by switching the interface, you can see the equivalent in
       another interface language.

       COMMAND is a ConTeXt command to search for in the database.  Note  that
       Plain  TeX commands are not (yet) in this database although they can be
       used in ConTeXt source files.

       LANGUAGE can be one of cz (Czech), de (German), en (US-English)  or  nl
       (Dutch).  The default language is Dutch.

       You can also set the interface language with the --interface switch.

       --interface=LANGUAGE
