.SH NAME
euktopst - Eukleides interpreter to PSTricks
.SH SYNOPSIS
\fBeuktopst\fP [\fIOPTION\fP...] \fIFILE\fP
.SH DESCRIPTION
Eukleides is a computer language devoted to elementary plane geometry.
It aims to be a fairly comprehensive system to create geometric figures,
either static or dynamic.
It allows one to handle geometric types of data like points, vectors,
lines, circles, or conics.
.PP
The \fBeuktopst\fP program interprets Eukleides scripts into PSTricks
figures.
This program is mainly used by the scripts
.BR euktoeps (1),
.BR euktotex (1),
and
.BR euktopdf (1)
which then run
.BR latex (1)
and other utilities to produce various types of output.
