NAME

       ttut - Tool for Transaction-Use Tables

SYNOPSIS

       ttut [options] [document]

DESCRIPTION

       ttut is an X11/Motif based graphical editor for drawing transaction-use
       tables.  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.

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

ARGUMENTS

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

       Without a document name as argument, ttut creates a new transaction-use
       table with the name ’untitled.tut’.

       In addition to the standard  X11  toolkit  options  (see  X11(7))  ttut
       accepts the options listed below:

       -cell widthxheight
              Sets  the  minimal  cell size of the editor to width pixels wide
              and height pixels high. The cells in the initial table have  the
              minimal size.

       -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.

       -table rowsxcolumns
              The table editor will be initialized with a  table  having  rows
              rows  and  columns  columns.  By default the initial table has 7
              rows and 7 columns.

       -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 ttut.

       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/ttut
              the transaction-use table 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.

              Each user of TCM can override some of the options of tcm.conf by
              its own configuration file, installed in $HOME/.tcmrc.
