ifrit - a powerful tool that can be used to visualize
3-dimensional data sets
ifrit [qt-options] [options] [dir_name]
This manual page documents briefly the ifrit command. This
manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original
program does not have a manual page.
- -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.
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 directory.
- 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.
