NAME

       Veusz - a scientific plotting and graphing application.

SYNOPSIS

       veusz [options] [document.vsz]...

DESCRIPTION

       Veusz is a scientific plotting and graphing package. It is designed to create publication-
       ready output in a variety of different output formats. Graphs are built-up combining
       plotting widgets. Veusz has a GUI user interface (started with the "veusz" command), a
       Python module interface and a scripting interface.

       If started without command line arguments, Veusz will open up with a new empty document.
       The program will otherwise open the listed documents.

OPTIONS

       --unsafe-mode
               Do not check opened scripts for the presence of unsafe Python commands. This
               allows you to create or open complete Python scripts with Veusz commands if they
               come from a trusted source.

       --listen
               Read Veusz commands from stdin, executing them, then writing the results to
               stdout. This option replaces the old veusz_listen.

               In this mode Veusz does not read any input documents, but will use the first
               argument to the program as the window title, if given.

       --quiet If in listening mode, do not open a window before running commands, but execute
               them quietly.

       --export=FILE
               Export the next Veusz document file on the command line to the graphics file FILE.
               Supported file types include EPS, PDF, SVG, PNG, BMP, JPG and XPM. The extension
               of the output file is used to determine the output file format. There should be as
               many export options specified as input Veusz documents on the command line.

       --export-option=OPT
               Adds the option given when exporting. Supported options are dpi=DPI giving the
               resolution for bitmap output files (default 100), color=True/False to switch to
               monochrome output (default True), page=[X,...] gives a list of pages to export
               (default [0]), where the page numbers are numbered from 0, antialias=True/False
               enables or disables antialiasing in bitmap output files (default True),
               quality=VAL gives the JPEG quality value (default 85), backcolor='#RRGGBBAA' gives
               the background color of bitmap files (default '#ffffff00'), pdfdpi=DPI gives the
               DPI when outputing to PDF files (default 150) and svgtextastext=True/False outputs
               text in SVG files as text, rather than as curves (default False).

       --plugin=FILE
               Loads the Veusz plugin FILE when starting Veusz. This option provides a per-
               session alternative to adding the plugin in the preferences dialog box.

       --help  Displays the options to the program and exits.

       --version
               Displays information about the currently installed version and exits.
