NAME

       paw-demos - run PAW demonstrations

SYNOPSIS

       paw-demos [options] [example_num [test_num]]

DESCRIPTION

       paw-demos is a script to run the demonstrations of PAW in the paw-demos
       package.  It will create a demo directory (by default $HOME/paw-demos),
       copy  the  demos  from  /usr/share/paw-demos to this directory, and run
       them.  Both examples and tests are available.

       example_num is the number of the example to start  with;  examples  are
       skipped  if  example_num  >  31.  test_num is the number of the test to
       start with; tests are skipped if test_num > 8.   Note  that  the  first
       example is numbered 1 but the first test is numbered 0.

OPTIONS

       --batch
              Run  demos  in  batch mode; output to PostScript.  The resulting
              output files are placed into a "linux" subdirectory of the  demo
              directory.

       --clean
              Clean  the  demo  directory  given  by  the --dir option (or the
              default directory if --dir is not given).   This  option  causes
              example_num, test_num, --batch, and --driver to be ignored.

       --dir dir
              Specify the directory in which to run the PAW demos, relative to
              $HOME.  If it does not already exist, it will be created and the
              demos  copied  to  it  from  the  directory  /usr/share/doc/paw-
              demos/examples.  The default is $HOME/paw-demos.

       --display display
              Specify the display to use.  The default is the current value of
              the $DISPLAY environment variable.

       --driver driver
              Specify  a  graphics  driver.   Available  options are "X11" for
              pawX11 and "++" for paw++.

       --help Show a summary of options.
