NAME

       ifrit - a powerful tool that can be used to visualize 3-dimensional data sets

SYNOPSIS

       ifrit [qt-options] [options] [dir_name]

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual  page  documents briefly the ifrit command.  This manual page was written for
       the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

OPTIONS

       -8     accepts an 8-bit display

       -d     starts IFRIT with all windows docked together into a single window.

       -nf    does not show the splash screen at start-up

       -sw    uses small font to reduce the QT window size

       -rw    IFRIT is being used remotely.  This option can be used to  minimize  re-drawing  of
              the widget windows.

       -ni    IFRIT  is not idiosyncratic.  This prompts IFRIT not to ask for a confirmation when
              exiting or running scripts.

       -np number
              sets the number of processors to use. Note that only some parts  of  IFRIT  support
              parallel execution so far.

       -i file_name
              loads the state from the previously saved state file filename.

       -b file_name
              runs  IFRIT  in  batch  mode,  taking  animation script from the file filename.  If
              filename starts with sign "+", standard directories (see  ENVIRONMENT  VARIABLES  )
              will be prepended to the file name.

       -h -help
              show the list of available command-line options.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       IFRIT understands the following environment variables (all in capitals):

       IFRIT_DIR
              The  main  IFRIT  directory  where you keep the variable file ifrit.nam and options
              file(s) ifrit.ini. If  this  variable  is  not  set,  IFRIT  assumes  that  current
              directory is the main directory.

       IFRIT_DATA_DIR:
              The  default  directory  for the data files. If not set, IFRIT will start searching
              for the data files in the current directory.

       IFRIT_MESH_DATA_DIR
              The default directory for the mesh  data  files.  If  not  set,  IFRIT  will  start
              searching for the mesh data in the default data directory.

       IFRIT_PART_DATA_DIR
              The  default  directory  for  the particle data files. If not set, IFRIT will start
              searching for the particle data in the default data directory.

       IFRIT_VECT_DATA_DIR
              The default directory for the vector field data files. If not set, IFRIT will start
              searching for the vector field data in the default data directory.

       IFRIT_TENS_DATA_DIR
              The default directory for the tensor field data files. If not set, IFRIT will start
              searching for the tensor field data in the default data directory.

       IFRIT_IMAGE_DIR
              The directory where IFRIT will place image and animation files. If not  set,  IFRIT
              will put image files into the current directory.

       IFRIT_SCRIPT_DIR
              The  directory where IFRIT will place animation scripts. If not set, IFRIT will put
              scripts into its main directory.

       IFRIT_PALETTE_DIR
              The directory where IFRIT will place custom palettes. If not set,  IFRIT  will  put
              palettes into its main directory.
