ENGAUGE-DIGITIZER(1)					      General Commands Manual					      ENGAUGE-DIGITIZER(1)

NAME

       engauge-digitizer - interactively convert a bitmap graph or map into numbers

SYNOPSIS

       engauge [options]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the engauge command from the engauge-digitizer package.

Startup
       -import FILE
	      Automatically import the specified image file at startup. Image files may also be imported manually using the menu

       -open FILE
	      Automatically  open  the	specified Engauge Digitizer document file at startup. Document files may also be opened manually using the
	      menu

       -help  Display a list of command line options similar to this manpage in an X window and exit

       -manual DIRECTORY
	      Look for the HTML user guide in the specified directory. For Debian it is installed  in  /usr/share/doc/engauge-digitizer/usermanual
	      and should need no configuration.

       -axes XMIN XMAX YMIN YMAX
	      Scan  the  imported  file at startup, and locate the X and Y axes. Then digitize axis points assuming the X axis ranges from XMIN to
	      XMAX, and the Y axis ranges from YMIN to YMAX. The X axis is assumed to be near the bottom of the image, and the Y axis  is  assumed
	      to  be  on  the  left  side  of  the image. For speed, no attempt to rotate the image if it is sideways, so the digitized points may
	      require adjustment. This feature should be useful when using Perl or other scripts to digitize many images with known  axes  ranges.
	      The axis points may also be digitized manually using the Digitize Axis Points mode

       -lazysegments
	      Postpone	scanning  for segments that is normally performed during startup, until either the Segments dialog is used, or the Segment
	      Fill button is selected.

Shutdown
       -export FILE
	      Automatically export the active document at shutdown. Documents may also be exported manually using the menu.

Settings
       -reset Reset all settings to the factory defaults. This option is a fast and easy way to restore all settings to  a  useful  configuration,
	      especially when there are problems with one or more settings.  Settings are stored in a text file such as $HOME/.qt/engaugerc.

Debugging
       -pixels
	      Show cursor location in pixel coordinates rather than graph coordinates

       -ctor  Trace constructor calls

       -dtor  Trace destructor calls

       -curvecmb
	      Trace curve combobox operations

       -measurecmb
	      Trace measure combobox operations

       -refresh
	      Trace screen refreshes

       -scanning
	      Trace image scanning

Environment variables
       ENGAUGE_BROWSER
	      To  start  up the date/time converter from within Engauge Digitizer, this environment variable must be set to the shell command that
	      runs a javascript-capable browser. Examples are 'firefox', 'konqueror', ...

       ENGAUGE_USERMANUAL
	      If set, this specifies the directory containing the user manual. This option, like the '-manual' command line option, should not	be
	      needed on a Debian installation.

SEE ALSO

       The  program  is documented quite nicely in the HTML user guide and tutorial, available under /usr/share/doc/engauge-digitzer/usermanual or
       from Help within the running program.

PNGPHOON(1)						      General Commands Manual						       PNGPHOON(1)

NAME

       pngphoon -- Creates a png file with the current phase of the moon

SYNOPSIS

       pngphoon [-w width]  [-h height]  [-f filename]	[-x moons_in_x]  [-y moons_in_y]  [-s density]	[-b]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the pngphoon command.

       This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

       pngphoon is a program that creates a PNG image of the current phase of the moon. It is a successor to xphoon but does not write to the root
       window, but to a file.  You can use it with window managers that accept commands for their background image  settings.	It  is	pronounced
       "pingphoon" (like "typhoon").

OPTIONS

       This program takes the following options.

       -h	 Mandatory.  Gives the image height. The image must be at least 760px high to be able to contain the moon. If the image is smaller
		 only the stars will be plotted.

       -w	 Mandatory. Gives the image width. The image must be at least 760px wide to be able to contain the moon. If the image  is  smaller
		 only the stars will be plotted.

       -f	 Mandatory. File name the PNG image shall be written to, for output to stdout use - instead of a filename

       -x	 Number of moons in x axis (for multihead configurations)

       -y	 Number of moons in y axis (for multihead configurations)

       -s	 Star density

       -b	 Black (no earthlight)
