DtShowInfoAtLoc filename section
    Display the section or topic specified by section contained within the infolib specified by filename. filename can be either a relative or absolute file path. section specifies the information library section in generalized locator format. dtinfo is started if it is not already running. This corresponds to invoking dtinfo with the -sect option from the command line.

DtPrintInfoAtLoc
    Print one or more infolib sections from the desktop. This action is invoked whenever a section or sections is dragged from the book list window in dtinfo and dropped on the printer icon on the front panel.

These actions can be invoked from an application using the DtActionInvoke(3) function or invoked from a command line using the dtaction(1) utility.
