Universalis

Instructions

The Universalis program contains two main views.

The text view shows the text of the page you want. It is described below.

The calendar view shows the calendar, listing days, dates and feasts. Read about it here.

You can have one or other view on the screen, or both together. A control at the bottom left of the Universalis window lets you choose the view you want; so does the View menu.

You will also want to read about preferences and special commands.

In the middle of a text page, you will often see a menu button on the right-hand side of the screen. The menu button lets you choose among various options within the page. Depending on which program or app you are using, the menu button will either be a stack of red lines or a blue arrow.
