SYNOPSIS

       gnumed  [--quiet|debug]  [--slave]  [--text-domain=TEXTDOMAIN]  [--log-file=FILE] [--conf-
       file=FILE] [--lang-gettext=LANGUAGE]  [--ui=UI-TYPE]  [--override-schema-check]  [--local-
       import] [--help] [--version] [-V] [-h|?]

DESCRIPTION

       GNUmed  is  a  solution  for  keeping  safe  and  medically  sound electronic records on a
       patient's health. It primarily focuses on GP offices. It is released under the GPL.

       GNUmed is written in Python with  wxPython/wxWindows.  Data  is  stored  in  a  PostgreSQL
       database. Multiple clients can work with the same database at the same time.

OPTIONS

--quiet
Be extra quiet and show only _real_ errors in the log.

--debug
Pre-set the [debug mode] checkbox in the login dialog which controls increased
verbosity in the log file.

Useful for, well, debugging :-) Slower, too.

--slave
Pre-set the [enable remote control] checkbox in the login dialog to enable the XML-
RPC remote control feature.

--hipaa
Enable HIPAA features with user workflow impact.

Those features which do not affect the workflow of the user are permanently
enabled.

--text-domain=TEXTDOMAIN
Set this to change the name of the language file to be loaded. Note, this does not
change the directory the file is searched in, only the name of the file where
messages are loaded from. The standard textdomain is, of course, "gnumed.mo". You
need only specify the base name of the file without the .mo extension.

--log-file=FILE
Use this to change the name of the log file. The default log file would be
<~/.gnumed/gnumed.log>.

--conf-file=FILE
Use configuration file FILE instead of searching for it in standard locations.

--lang-gettext=LANGUAGE
Explicitly set the language to use in gettext translation. The very same effect can
be achieved by setting the environment variable $LANG from a launcher script.

--ui=UI-TYPE
Explicitly set the user interface type. Omitting this argument will default the
interface to wxPython.

Valid values are:

wxp: wxPython Python client (default)

web: CherryPy web client

--override-schema-check
Continue loading the client even if the database schema version and the client
software version cannot be verified to be compatible.

--skip-update-check
Skip checking for client updates. This is useful during development or when the
update check URL is unavailable.

--local-import
At startup adjust the PYTHONPATH such that the GNUmed client is run from a local
copy of the source tree rather than from a proper system-wide installation.

--version, -V
Show version information about the GNUmed client and the database it needs.

--help, -h, or -?
Well, show this help.

ENVIRONMENT

       LANG, LC_MESSAGES, etc.
              See gettext(1) for how the various locale related environment variables work.

FILES

       ~/etc/gnumed/gnumed-client.conf
              The system-wide configuration file.

       ~/.gnumed/gnumed.conf
              The user-specific configuration file.

       ~/.gnumed/gnumed.log
              The default log file.

BUGS

       A  lot  of  functionality  is  still  missing.  However, to make up for that, we deliver a
       plethora of bugs for your amusement :-)
