NAME

       pycirkuit - GUI/CLI front-end for "Circuit Macros" and the PIC language

SYNOPSIS

       pycirkuit [ options ] [ path [ path2 ...] ]

DESCRIPTION

       PyCirkuit is a front-end for Dwight Aplevich's Circuit Macros, which is a set of macros for drawing high-
       quality line diagrams to include in TeX, LaTeX, etc. PyCirkuit builds a live preview and allows it to  be
       exported as TikZ, PDF, PNG or JPEG.

OPTIONS

       -h, --help
           Displays a help menu.

       -v, --version
           Displays version information.

       -t, --tikz
           Activates batch (unattended) mode, and convert files specified by path to TIkZ format. Several output
           formats can be used together.

       -f, --pdf
           Activates batch (unattended) mode, and convert files specified by path to PDF format. Several  output
           formats can be used together.

       -p, --png
           Activates  batch (unattended) mode, and convert files specified by path to PNG format. Several output
           formats can be used together.

       -j, --jpeg
           Activates batch (unattended) mode, and convert files specified by path to JPEG format. Several output
           formats can be used together.

       -s, --svg
           Activates  batch (unattended) mode, and convert files specified by path to SVG format. Several output
           formats can be used together.

       --dpi N
           Sets the resolution of output raster images (png, jpg), in dots per inch. Value N  is  mandatory.  If
           option is not set, default is 150dpi (defined in 'settings' dialog).

       --quality Q
           Sets  the quality of output raster lossy images (jpg), in percent. Value Q is mandatory. If option is
           not set, default is 80% (defined in 'settings' dialog).

       --destination directory
           Save all converted files into the same destination directory D (value is mandatory).

       --links
           Follow symbolic links.
               - If not set, destination file will be saved into the same directory where the  source  file  is,
               whether it's a real file or a symbolic link.
               - If set, destination file will be saved into the directory

       --overwrite
           Overwrite  by  default  the  converted  files  if they are present. If not set, user will be asked at
           runtime.

       -r
           Using this option the pattern '**' will match any files and zero or more subdirs, so '**/*.ckt'  will
           match all files with 'ckt' extension in the current directory and all its subdirectories.

EXAMPLES

       pycirkuit --png examples/*.ckt
           Convert all files with 'ckt' extension in the 'examples' directory to PNG.

       pycirkuit --jpeg --pdf --quality 100 --dpi 200  examples/*.ckt
           Convert all files with 'ckt' extension in the 'examples' directory to JPEG and PDF. Also set the JPEG
           quality to 100% and the dots per inch to 200.

       pycirkuit --tikz --png --dpi 300 --overwrite -r **/*.ckt --destination output
           Convert all files with 'ckt' extension under the current directory to TikZ and PNG and save  them  in
           the 'output' directory. Also set the PNG dots per inch to 300 and overwrite files by default.
