The Surface Evolver is an interactive program for the
modelling of liquid surfaces shaped by various forces and constraints.
Basically the Surface Evolver minimizes the energy of triangulated
surfaces according to designated energies and constraints.
This man page mainly documents command line options and
environment variables.
- -a
- Autoconvert to named quantities when needed (default is on); use `-a-' to
deactivate autoconversion.
- -d
- Begin with parser debugging on (equivalent to `debug' runtime command);
beware of copious output.
- -e
- Echo stdin to stdout; meant for testing piped input.
- -f FILE
- After loading DATAFILE, read commands from file, then command line
prompt.
- -i
- Preserve DATAFILE numbers for element id's, rather than renumbering.
- -m
- Begin with memory debugging on (equivalent to `memdebug' runtime command);
beware of copious output.
- -pN
- Run with N concurrent processes.
- -q
- Convert to named quantities at start (equivalent to
`convert_to_quantities' runtime command).
- -w
- Exit immediately after any warning or error message; meant for batch
runs.
- -x
- Exit immediately after any error message; meant for batch runs.
- -y
- Break to user prompt after any warning message.
- -h
- Display this help, then exit.
- -V
- Display the version and the banner, then exit.
The latest version of the Surface Evolver, up-to-date
documentation, and more are available on-line from:
http://www.susqu.edu/brakke/evolver
Surface Evolver Version 2.70a (Debian 2.70+ds-8+b2), August 27,
2013, 32-bit. Compiled for double, 15 digits precision. Built with Geomview
support.
- EVOLVERPATH
- Colon-separated list of paths automatically searched for datafiles,
included files, or on-line help documentation. By default, the paths
/usr/share/doc/evolver/html and
/usr/share/doc/evolver/examples are appended (in that order); this
default behaviour can be cancelled by appending at least three consecutive
colons (":::") at its end.
~/.evolver_history
Per user command history file.
