NAME¶
eukleides - Eukleides interpreter to PostScript
SYNOPSIS¶
eukleides [
OPTION...]
FILE
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 to handle geometric types of data like points, vectors,
lines, circles, or conics.
The
eukleides program is useful to convert Eukleides scripts into
Encapsulated PostScript files. It may also interpret scripts using interactive
variables to multi-page PostScript documents which can later be transformed
into animated GIFs using for instance ImageMagick's
convert(1).
OPTIONS¶
- -l, --locale[=LANG]

disabled.
- -o, --output[=OUTPUTFILE]
- Set an output file name. With no argument given, the output
stream is set to standard output.
