NAME

       tucd - Tool for UML Use-case Diagrams

SYNOPSIS

       tucd [options] [document]

DESCRIPTION

       tucd  is  an  X11/Motif based graphical editor for drawing UML use-case diagrams. Documents can be loaded
       from and stored to a file. It can print documents to a PostScript printer or  save  as  PostScript  to  a
       file.

       tucd is part of The Toolkit for Conceptual Modeling (TCM).

ARGUMENTS

       You  can  call  tucd  with a single document name as argument.  If this argument is an existing file then
       tucd tries to load a document from it. If it does not exist, a new document is created with the  argument
       as document name. tucd files should have suffix '*.ucd'.

       Without a document argument, tucd creates a new empty use-case diagram with the name 'untitled.ucd'.

       In addition to the standard X11 toolkit options (see X11(7)), tucd accepts the options listed below:

       -drawing widthxheight
              Create a drawing area of width pixels wide and height pixels high.

       -help  Write all available options to standard output and quit.

       -maxdrawing widthxheight
              The drawing area can not be larger than width pixels wide and height pixels high.

       -priv_cmap
              Start the editor with a private colormap.

       -projdir directory
              Set the project directory (current working directory) to directory.

       -toPS [file.ps]
              Generate PostScript (to file.ps or stdout when no file name was given) and quit.

       -toEPS [file.eps]
              Generate EPS (to file.eps or stdout when no file name was given) and quit.

       -toFig [file.fig] [-latex]
              Generate  Fig  format (to file.fig or stdout when no file name was given and quit. When the -latex
              option is given, LaTeX fonts are generated, otherwise normal PostScript fonts are generated.   The
              Fig format can be read by xfig(1) and fig2dev(1).

       -toPNG file.png
              Generate PNG format to file.png and quit.

       -toPS [file.ps]
              Generate PostScript (to file.ps or stdout when no file name was given) and quit.

       -version
              Write the TCM version to standard output and quit.

ENVIRONMENT

       The TCM_HOME environment variable should be the directory where the TCM files are installed.

       PATH   Should include $TCM_HOME/bin

       MANPATH
              Should include $TCM_HOME/man

       PRINTER
              Name of the default printer that is used by tucd.

       LD_LIBRARY_PATH
              Should   include   $TCM_HOME/lib  when  the  distribution  contains  shared  object  libraries  in
              $TCM_HOME/lib.

FILES

       The following relative files are relative to $TCM_HOME.

       bin/tucd
              the use-case diagram editor.

       bin/psf
              a program to filter PostScript output.

       lib/banner.ps
              PostScript banner page that can be used when the printer does not print a banner page.

       lib/help/*
              The help directory contains a collection of text files for the on-line help.

       lib/TCM
              X Resources (the same as the ones that are built-in).  You can customize the fonts and  colors  by
              setting    resources    in    your    X    defaults   database.    Each   string   of   the   form
              ``TCM.resource:definition'' sets a resource.

       /tmp/tcmXXXXXX
              Pseudo random temporary file, for PostScript output.

       lib/tcm.conf
              TCM editor configuration file. This file contains values for some of the editor defaults like  the
              page size, the default fonts etc. This file is read by each editor upon startup.

       $HOME/.tcmrc
              Each  user  of  TCM  can  override  some of the options of tcm.conf by its own configuration file,
              installed in $HOME/.tcmrc.
