view-file(2)

NAME

view-file - Load a file read only

SYNOPSIS

view-file "file-name" (C-x C-v) 

DESCRIPTION

view-file is like find-file(2), and either finds the file in a buffer, or creates a new buffer and reads the file in. A new file is left in view(2m) mode if the file was found (i.e. cannot be edited).
