tefd \- Tool for Data and Event Flow Diagrams
10
is an X11/Motif based graphical editor for drawing data and control flow diagrams.
11
Documents can be loaded from and stored to a file. It can print
12
documents to a PostScript printer or save as PostScript to a file.
14
\fItefd\fP is part of \fIThe Toolkit for Conceptual Modeling (TCM)\fP.
17
You can call \fItefd\fP with a single document name as argument.
18
If this argument is an existing file then \fItefd\fP
19
tries to load a document from it. If it does not exist, a new document
20
is created with the argument as document name. \fItefd\fP files should
23
Without a document argument, \fItefd\fP creates a new
24
empty data and control flow diagram with the name 'untitled.efd'.
26
In addition to the standard X11 toolkit options (see X11(7)) \fItefd\fP accepts
27
the options listed below:

Create a drawing area of \fIwidth\fP pixels wide and
31
\fIheight\fP pixels high.
34
Write all available options to standard output and quit.
36
.B \-maxdrawing \fIwidth\fPx\fIheight\fP
37
The drawing area can not be larger than \fIwidth\fP pixels wide and
38
\fIheight\fP pixels high.

50
.B \-toFig [\fIfile\fP.fig] [-latex]
51
Generate Fig format (to \fIfile\fP.fig or stdout when no file name was
52
given and quit. When the -latex option is given, LaTeX fonts are
53
generated, otherwise normal PostScript fonts are generated.
54
The Fig format can be read by xfig(1) and fig2dev(1).
56
.B \-toPNG \fIfile\fP.png
57
Generate PNG format to \fIfile\fP.png and quit.
59

The help directory contains a collection of text files for

X Resources (the same as the ones that are built-in).
