NAME

       tdc - stand alone clock that is designed to run as a dock application but is not required to

SYNOPSIS

       tdc [options]

DESCRIPTION

       Tiny Dockable Clock (tdc) is a simple and tiny dockable clock.

       TDC is a stand-alone clock to X Window Systemd/X11 (e.g. XOrg or XFree86). It has minimal build and run-time dependencies. TDC works with
       virtually any EWMH-compliant window manager.

       The behaviour and the look of TDC can be configured either via command line options or via configuration file. As usual, command-line
       options have precedence over options that are specified in the configuration file.

NAME

       paps - UTF-8 to PostScript converter using Pango

SYNOPSIS

       paps [options] files...

DESCRIPTION

       paps reads a UTF-8 encoded file and generates a PostScript language rendering of the file. The rendering is done by creating outline curves
       through the pango ft2 backend.

OPTIONS

       included below.

       --landscape
	      Landscape output. Default is portrait.

       --columns=cl
	      Number of columns output. Default is 1.
	      Please notice this option isn't related to the terminal length as in a "80 culums terminal".

       --font=desc
	      Set the font description. Default is Monospace 12.

       --rtl  Do right to left (RTL) layout.

       --paper ps
	      Choose paper size. Known paper sizes are legal, letter and A4. Default is A4.

	      Set bottom margin. Default is 36 postscript points.

       --top-margin=tm

       --lpi  Set the lines per inch. This determines the line spacing.

       --cpi  Set the characters per inch. This is an alternative method of specifying the font size.

       --stretch-chars
	      Indicates  that  characters  should be stretched in the y-direction to fill up their vertical space. This is similar to the texttops
	      behaviour.
