IFRIT(1) General Commands Manual IFRIT(1) NAME
ifrit - a powerful tool that can be used to visualize 3-dimensional data sets SYNOPSIS
ifrit [qt-options] [options] [dir_name] DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the ifrit command. This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original pro- gram does not have a manual page. OPTIONS
-8 accepts an 8-bit display -d starts IFRIT with all windows docked together into a single window. -nf does not show the splash screen at start-up -sw uses small font to reduce the QT window size -rw IFRIT is being used remotely. This option can be used to minimize re-drawing of the widget windows. -ni IFRIT is not idiosyncratic. This prompts IFRIT not to ask for a confirmation when exiting or running scripts. -np number sets the number of processors to use. Note that only some parts of IFRIT support parallel execution so far. -i file_name loads the state from the previously saved state file filename. -b file_name runs IFRIT in batch mode, taking animation script from the file filename. If filename starts with sign "+", standard directories (see ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES ) will be prepended to the file name. -h -help show the list of available command-line options. ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
IFRIT understands the following environment variables (all in capitals): IFRIT_DIR The main IFRIT directory where you keep the variable file ifrit.nam and options file(s) ifrit.ini. If this variable is not set, IFRIT assumes that current directory is the main directory. IFRIT_DATA_DIR: The default directory for the data files. If not set, IFRIT will start searching for the data files in the current directory. IFRIT_MESH_DATA_DIR The default directory for the mesh data files. If not set, IFRIT will start searching for the mesh data in the default data direc- tory. IFRIT_PART_DATA_DIR The default directory for the particle data files. If not set, IFRIT will start searching for the particle data in the default data directory. IFRIT_VECT_DATA_DIR The default directory for the vector field data files. If not set, IFRIT will start searching for the vector field data in the default data directory. IFRIT_TENS_DATA_DIR The default directory for the tensor field data files. If not set, IFRIT will start searching for the tensor field data in the default data directory. IFRIT_IMAGE_DIR The directory where IFRIT will place image and animation files. If not set, IFRIT will put image files into the current directory. IFRIT_SCRIPT_DIR The directory where IFRIT will place animation scripts. If not set, IFRIT will put scripts into its main directory. IFRIT_PALETTE_DIR The directory where IFRIT will place custom palettes. If not set, IFRIT will put palettes into its main directory. SEE ALSO

rmdir(1) General Commands Manual rmdir(1) NAME
rmdir - Removes a directory SYNOPSIS
rmdir [-p] [-s] directory... STANDARDS
Interfaces documented on this reference page conform to industry standards as follows: rmdir: XCU5.0 Refer to the standards(5) reference page for more information about industry standards and associated tags. OPTIONS
Removes all directories in a path name. For each directory argument, the directory entry it names is removed. If the directory argument includes more than one path name component, effects equivalent to the following command occur: rmdir -p $(dirname directory) That is, rmdir recursively removes each directory in the path name. OPERANDS
The path name of an empty directory to be removed. DESCRIPTION
The rmdir command removes a directory from the system. The directory must be empty before you can remove it, and you must have write per- mission in its parent directory. Use the ls -al command to see if a directory is empty. If a directory and a subdirectory of that directory are specified in a single invocation of rmdir, the subdirectory must be specified before the parent directory so that the parent directory will be empty when rmdir tries to remove it. RESTRICTIONS
A directory must be empty before you can remove it, and you must have write permission in its parent directory. If the -p option is used, all directories in the path must be empty except for the directory being recursively removed. EXIT STATUS
The following exit values are returned: Each directory specified by directory operand was successfully removed. An error occurred. EXAMPLES
To empty and remove a directory, enter: rm mydir/* mydir/.* rmdir mydir This removes the contents of mydir, then removes the empty directory. The rm command displays an error message about trying to remove the directories . (dot) and .. (dot dot), and then rmdir removes them. Note that rm mydir/* mydir/.* first removes files with names that do not begin with a (dot), then those with names that do begin with a (dot). You may not realize that the directory contains file names that begin with a (dot) because the ls command does not normally list them unless you use the -a option to see the files whose names begin with a (dot). To remove all of the directories in the path name a/b/c, enter: rmdir -p a/b/c Use a command like this one if directory a in the current directory is empty except that it contains a directory b and a/b is empty except that it contains a directory c. ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
The following environment variables affect the execution of rmdir: Provides a default value for the internationalization variables that are unset or null. If LANG is unset or null, the corresponding value from the default locale is used. If any of the internationalization vari- ables contain an invalid setting, the utility behaves as if none of the variables had been defined. If set to a non-empty string value, overrides the values of all the other internationalization variables. Determines the locale for the interpretation of sequences of bytes of text data as characters (for example, single-byte as opposed to multibyte characters in arguments). Determines the locale for the for- mat and contents of diagnostic messages written to standard error. Determines the location of message catalogues for the processing of LC_MESSAGES. SEE ALSO
