Tim Edwards 09577b5636 Updated all of the documentation by copying back from the website.
The website documentation now points to these contents in a clone
of the repository on opencircuitdesign.com, so all future edits of
the command-line documentation will be made directly to the git
repository.  Also:  Changed the precision of box values printed in
microns from 2 to 3 digits after the decimal place, so that 5 nanometer
grids do not get values clipped in the output.

where <I>llx lly urx ury</I> are layout dimensions to become

</BLOCKQUOTE>

<H3>Summary:</H3>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
The <B>view</B> command is most often used without arguments to
center and scale the screen view of the layout window to fit the layout. <P>
<B>view bbox</B> returns the bounding box dimensions of the layout,
in the coordinate system of the layout. <P>
<B>view get</B> returns the coordinates of the screen limits in
the coordinate system of the layout (internal database units). <P>
<B>view</B> <I>llx lly urx ury</I> sets the view so that the
corners of the screen are at the indicated positions in the
coordinate system of the layout. Where the dimensions do not
match exactly to the screen aspect ratio, the view will be
centered on the indicated coordinates.
</BLOCKQUOTE>
<H3>Implementation Notes:</H3>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
<B>view</B> is implemented as a built-in command in <B>magic</B>.
