NAME

Euler - A numerical laboratory.

SYNTAX

euler [-f font] [-g font] [-s KB] [-geom geometry]
[-d display] [-0..15 color] [ files ]

OPTIONS

-f font: Specifies the font name for text output.
-g font: Specifies the font name for graphic text.
-s number: Specifies the number of KBytes for the user area of Euler.
-geom geometry: geometry is the geometry of the euler window in standard form.
-number color: Sets the color number to a color name.
files: Specifies input files for Euler. Default extension is ".e".

PURPOSE

Euler is a Matlab(R) style numerical laboratory. It is capable of numerical mathematics with real or complex scalars, vectors or matrices. It can produce graphics in 2D or 3D. The built in programming language can be used to define functions, which can be loaded from external files. Many useful numerical algorithms are contained in the code. Others are contained in the setup file and written in the Euler language.

USAGE

This version of Euler has a single window. The user can switch between the text and graphics output with the TAB key. Old text output may be accessed by the page up and pyge down key. Pointer usage is restricted to the mouse function. For details on the use of euler see the file euler.doc.

FILES

euler: The program.
euler.cfg: The configuration file, which in turn loads "util.e".
*.e: Euler language files. Important examples are "util.e" and "demo.e"
euler.doc: The documentation. On this system, euler is a shell script, which envokes the euler program and sets the directory to $HOME/euler/progs. Scan this directory for the "*.e" and "*.doc" files.
