10
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 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
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 --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 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 --quiet If in listening mode, do not open a window before running
38 commands, but execute them quietly.
39 --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 --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 --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 --help Displays the options to the program and exits.
68 --version
70 Displays information about the currently installed version and
71 exits.
