DESCRIPTION

       SPLASH:  A  visualisation tool for SPH data (c)2004-2025 Daniel Price and contributors v3.11.2 [4th April
       2025]

       Usage with flags: splash [-f format] [-p fileprefix] [-ev]

              [-x col] [-y col] [-r col] [-cont col] file1 file2 ...

       Command line options:

       -f format
              : input file format to be read (default is ascii, --formats for full list)

       -p fileprefix
              : change prefix to ALL settings files read/written by splash

       -e, -ev
              : use default options best suited for line plotting (.ev files)

       -360   : set default options suited to 360 video

       -b, --buffer
              : buffer all data files into memory

       -o pixformat
              : dump pixel map in specified format (use just -o for list of formats)

       Command line plotting mode:

       -x column
              : x axis

       -y column
              : y axis

       -r[ender] column
              : column to render (will use 1 and 2 as x,y if -x,-y not specified)

       -vec[tor] column
              : vector quantity to plot with arrows

       -c[ontour] column : contoured quantity

       -multi
              : multiplot

       -dev device
              : specify plotting device on command line (e.g. -dev /xw)

       --movie
              : shortcut for -dev /mp4 to make a movie from plot sequence

       --xsec=1.0
              : specify location of cross section slice

       --kappa=1.0
              : specify opacity, and turn on opacity rendering

       --anglex=30
              : rotate around x axis (similarly --angley, --anglez)

       --code : enforce code units (also --codeunits)

       --sink=1
              : centre on sink particle number 1

       --origin=666
              : set coordinate system origin to particle number 666

       --origin=maxdens
              : set coordinate system origin to particle at maximum density

       --track=666
              : track particle number 666

       --track=maxdens
              : track particle at maximum density

       --exact=file1,f2
              : read and plot exact solution from ascii files file1 and f2

       --sort : sort filenames for comparison (e.g. snap_000 snap1_000 snap2_000)

       Example data formats (type --formats for full list):

       -ascii,-csv
              : ascii text/csv format (default)

       -phantom -sphng
              : Phantom and sphNG codes (auto)

       -vtk   : vtk legacy binary format (auto)

       -ndspmhd
              : ndspmhd code (auto)

       -gandalf,-seren
              : Gandalf/Seren code

       -gadget
              : Gadget code (auto)

       This build does not support HDF5. Compile with HDF5=yes to change this.   This  build  does  not  support
       FITS. Compile with FITS=yes to change this.

   Convert mode:
       splash to ascii
              : convert to ascii; type "splash to" for other formats

   Grid conversion mode:
       splash to grid
              : interpolate to grid; type "splash to" for details
