FITYK(1)						      General Commands Manual							  FITYK(1)

NAME

       fityk - non-linear curve fitting and data analysis

SYNOPSIS

       fityk [OPTION]... [FILE]...
       cfityk [OPTION]... [FILE]...

DESCRIPTION

       This manpage documents briefly the fityk and cfityk programs for nonlinear fitting of analytical functions (especially peak-shaped) to data
       (usually experimental data). In other words, for nonlinear peak separation and analysis.
       It was developed for analyzing diffraction patterns, but can be also used in other fields, since concepts and operations specific for crys-
       tallography are separated from the rest of the program.
       Fityk offers various nonlinear fitting methods, subtracting background, calibrating data, easy placement of peaks and changing peak parame-
       ters, automation of common tasks with scripts, and much more. The main advantage of the program is a flexibility - parameters of peaks  can
       be  arbitrarily	binded with each other, eg. width of peak can be an independent variable, can be the same as width of other peak or can be
       given by complicated - common for all peaks - formula.
       The program comes in two versions: fityk , the GUI version and cfityk , the command line version.
       A user manual for fityk and cfityk can be found in /usr/share/doc/fityk/html/fityk-manual.html.

NAME

       QtiPlot - Data Analysis and Scientific Plotting

SYNOPSIS

       qtiplot [options][file(s)]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the qtiplot command.	This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original pro-
       gram does not have a manual page.

       qtiplot is a powerful data analysis and scientific plotting program. It has an easy to use graphical user interface and a spreadsheet  cal-
       culator, a good fitting wizard and more. It can import project files from the Origin program.

OPTIONS

       These  programs	follow	the  usual  GNU  command  line	syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-').  A summary of options is
       included below.

       --about
	      Show about dialog and exit

       --default
	      Start QtiPlot with the default settings

       --help Show command line options

       --lang=XX
	      Start QtiPlot in language XX ('en', 'fr', 'de', ...)

       --manual
	      Show QtiPlot manual in a standalone window

       --version
	      Print QtiPlot version and release date

       --execute
	      Execute the script file given as argument
