Description
This type represents the acceptable values for the view arguments to operators of <table-control>.
There are four possible values, corresponding to the view options that will be familiar to most users of GUI-based operating systems:
#"small-icon" - Displays each item in the table with a small icon to the left of the item. Items are arranged horizontally.
#"large-icon" - Displays each item in the table with a large icon to the left of the item. Items are arranged horizontally.
#"list" - Displays each item in the table with a small icon to the left of the item. Items are arranged vertically in one column.
#"table" - Displays each item in the list with a small icon to the left of the item. Items are arranged vertically in one column. Additional details not available in other views are also displayed. The details that are displayed depend on the nature of the items in the table control. For example, if filenames are displayed in the table control, additional details may include the size, modification date, and creation date of each file. If e-mail messages are displayed in the table control, additional details may include the author of the e-mail, its subject, and the date and time it was sent.
