tfet \- Tool for Function Entity-type Tables
10
is an X11/Motif based graphical editor for drawing function entity-type
11
tables. 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
\fItfet\fP is part of \fIThe Toolkit for Conceptual Modeling (TCM)\fP.
17
You can call \fItfet\fP with a single document name as argument.
18
If this argument is an existing file then \fItfet\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. \fItfet\fP files should
23
Without a document name as argument, \fItfet\fP creates a new
24
function entity-type document with the name 'untitled.fet'.
26
In addition to the standard X11 toolkit options (see X11(7)) \fItfet\fP accepts
27
the options listed below:
29
.B \-cell \fIwidth\fPx\fIheight\fP
30
Sets the minimal cell size of the editor to \fIwidth\fP pixels
31
wide and \fIheight\fP pixels high. The cells in the initial table
32
have the minimal size.
34
.B \-drawing \fIwidth\fPx\fIheight\fP
35
Create a drawing area of \fIwidth\fP pixels wide and
36
\fIheight\fP pixels high.
39
Write all available options to standard output and quit.
41
.B \-maxdrawing \fIwidth\fPx\fIheight\fP
42
The drawing area can not be larger than \fIwidth\fP pixels wide and
43
\fIheight\fP pixels high.
46
Start the editor with a private colormap.
48
.B \-projdir \fIdirectory\fP
49
Set the project directory (current working directory) to \fIdirectory\fP.
51
.B \-table \fIrows\fPx\fIcolumns\fP
52
The table editor will be initialized with a table having \fIrows\fP
53
rows and \fIcolumns\fP columns. By default the initial table has
56
.B \-toEPS [\fIfile\fP.eps]
57
Generate EPS (to \fIfile\fP.eps or stdout when no file name was
60
.B \-toFig [\fIfile\fP.fig] [-latex]
61
Generate Fig format (to \fIfile\fP.fig or stdout when no file name was
62
given and quit. When the -latex option is given, LaTeX fonts are
63
generated, otherwise normal PostScript fonts are generated.
64
The Fig format can be read by xfig(1) and fig2dev(1).
66
.B \-toPNG \fIfile\fP.png
67
Generate PNG format to \fIfile\fP.png and quit.
69
.B \-toPS [\fIfile\fP.ps]
70
Generate PostScript (to \fIfile\fP.ps or stdout when no file name was
74
Write the TCM version to standard output and quit.
77
The \fBTCM_HOME\fP environment variable should be the directory
78
where the TCM files are installed.
81
Should include $TCM_HOME/bin
84
Should include $TCM_HOME/man
87
Name of the default printer that is used by \fItfet\fP.
90
Should include $TCM_HOME/lib
91
when the distribution contains shared
92
object libraries in $TCM_HOME/lib.
95
The following relative files are relative to $TCM_HOME.
98
the function entity-type table editor.
101
a program to filter PostScript output.
104
PostScript banner page that can be used when the printer
105
does not print a banner page.
108
The help directory contains a collection of text files for
112
X Resources (the same as the ones that are built-in).
113
You can customize the fonts and colors by setting resources
114
in your X defaults database. Each string of the form
115
``TCM.resource:definition'' sets a resource.
118
Pseudo random temporary file, for PostScript output.
121
TCM editor configuration file. This file contains values
122
for some of the editor defaults like the page size, the default
123
fonts etc. This file is read by each editor upon startup.
126
Each user of TCM can override some of the options of tcm.conf
127
by its own configuration file, installed in $HOME/.tcmrc.
