NAME

       svgtoipe - Convert a SVG file to Ipe 7 format

SYNOPSIS

       svgtoipe [-h] [-c] figure.svg [figure.ipe]

DESCRIPTION

       svgtoipe converts a SVG file to an XML file understood by Ipe version 7.

       If  the  output  filename is not specified, it will be derived either by replacing .ipe at
       the end of the input filename with .svg, or by appending .ipe if the input  filename  does
       not end with with .svg.

       If  either  input  or output filename is '--', then stdin, resp. stdout is used to read or
       write data.

       -h     display a short help text

       -c     operate in clipboard mode. Data is output as ipe clipboard  content.   This  allows
              pasting svg data from inkscape to ipe: (1) Copy elements Inkscape to clipboard, (2)
              run: 'xsel | ./svgtoipe.py -c -- | xsel -i', (3) paste clipboard content into ipe.
