NAME
freemat - Mathematics Framework
SYNOPSIS
freemat
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the freemat command. This manual page was written for the Debian
distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.
freemat is a free environment for rapid engineering and scientific prototyping and data processing. It is
similar to commercial systems such as MATLAB from Mathworks, and IDL from Research Systems, but is Open
Source. freemat is available under the GPL license.
OPTIONS
freemat follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-'). A
summary of options is included below.
-f <command>
Runs freemat in command mode. freemat will startup, run the given command, and then quit. Note
that this option uses the remainder of the command line, so use it last.
-nogui Suppress the GUI for freemat.
-noplastique
Do not force the plastique style for GUI.
-noX Disables the graphics subsystem.
-e uses a dumb terminal interface (no command line editing, etc.) This flag is primarily used when
you want to capture input/output to freemat from another application.
-i <path>
Install freemat - provide the path to the freemat data directory (containing the scripts, help and
other files.). Normally these are installed in /usr/share/freemat but regardless, you must run
freemat -i once to indicate the location of this directory. Note that in this mode, freemat will
only update its internal configuration and then exit.
-p <path>
-help Show summary of options.
