NAME

6       Veusz - a scientific plotting and graphing application.
7

SYNOPSIS

9       veusz [options] [document.vsz]...
10

DESCRIPTION

12       Veusz is a scientific plotting and graphing package. It is designed to
13       create publication-ready output in a variety of different output
14       formats. Graphs are built-up combining plotting widgets. Veusz has a
15       GUI user interface (started with the "veusz" command), a Python module
16       interface and a scripting interface.
17
18       If started without command line arguments, Veusz will open up with a
19       new empty document. The program will otherwise open the listed
20       documents.
21

OPTIONS

23       --unsafe-mode
24               Do not check opened scripts for the presence of unsafe Python
25               commands. This allows you to create or open complete Python
26               scripts with Veusz commands if they come from a trusted source.
27
28       --listen
29               Read Veusz commands from stdin, executing them, then writing
30               the results to stdout. This option replaces the old
31               veusz_listen.
32
33               In this mode Veusz does not read any input documents, but will
34               use the first argument to the program as the window title, if
35               given.
36
37       --quiet If in listening mode, do not open a window before running
38               commands, but execute them quietly.
39
40       --export=FILE
41               Export the next Veusz document file on the command line to the
42               graphics file FILE. Supported file types include EPS, PDF, SVG,
43               PNG, BMP, JPG and XPM. The extension of the output file is used
44               to determine the output file format. There should be as many
45               export options specified as input Veusz documents on the
46               command line.
47
48       --export-option=OPT
49               Adds the option given when exporting. Supported options are
50               dpi=DPI giving the resolution for bitmap output files (default
51               100), color=True/False to switch to monochrome output (default
52               True), page=[X,...] gives a list of pages to export (default
53               [0]), where the page numbers are numbered from 0,
54               antialias=True/False enables or disables antialiasing in bitmap
55               output files (default True), quality=VAL gives the JPEG quality
56               value (default 85), backcolor='#RRGGBBAA' gives the background
57               color of bitmap files (default '#ffffff00'), pdfdpi=DPI gives
58               the DPI when outputting to PDF files (default 150) and
59               svgtextastext=True/False outputs text in SVG files as text,
60               rather than as curves (default False).
61
62       --veusz-plugin=FILE
63               Loads the Veusz plugin FILE when starting Veusz. This option
64               provides a per-session alternative to adding the plugin in the
65               preferences dialog box.
66
67       --help  Displays the options to the program and exits.
68
69       --version
70               Displays information about the currently installed version and
71               exits.
