NAME

       tcpd - Tool for UML Component Diagrams

SYNOPSIS

       tcpd [options] [document]

DESCRIPTION

       tcpd  is an X11/Motif based graphical editor for drawing UML component 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.

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

ARGUMENTS

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

       Without a document argument, tcpd creates a new empty  component  diagram  with  the  name
       'untitled.cpd'.

       In  addition  to  the  standard X11 toolkit options (see X11(7)), tcpd 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 tcpd.

       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/tcpd
              the component 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.
