NAME

       ditaa - convert ASCII diagrams into proper bitmap graphics

SYNOPSIS

       ditaa [options] input [output]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the ditaa command.

       DiTAA  is  a  small  command-line utility that can convert diagrams drawn using ASCII art ("drawings" that contain characters that resemble
       lines, like | / and -), into proper bitmap graphics.

       DiTAA also uses special markup syntax to increase the possibilities of shapes and symbols that can be rendered.

OPTIONS

       --help Show summary of options.

       -v, --verbose
	      Makes ditaa more verbose.

       -A, --no-antialias
	      Turns anti-aliasing off.

       -d, --debug
	      Renders the debug grid over the resulting image.

       -E, --no-separation
	      Prevents the separation of common edges of shapes.

       -e ENCODING, --encoding ENCODING
	      The encoding of the input file.

       -h, --html
	      In this case the input is an HTML file. The contents of the <pre class="textdiagram"> tags are rendered as diagrams and saved in the
	      images directory and a new HTML file is produced with the appropriate <img> tags.

       -o, --overwrite
	      If  the  filename  of the destination image already exists, an alternative name is chosen.  If the overwrite option is selected, the
	      image file is instead overwriten.

       -r, --round-corners
	      Causes all corners to be rendered as round corners.

       -s SCALE, --scale SCALE
	      A natural number that determines the size of the rendered image. The units are fractions of the default size (2.5 renders 1.5  times
	      bigger than the default).

       -S, --no-shadows
	      Turns off the drop-shadow effect.

       -t TABS, --tabs TABS
	      Tabs  are  normally  interpreted as 8 spaces but it is possible to change that using this option. It is not advisable to use tabs in
	      your diagrams.

       aafigure {-h | --help | --version}

DESCRIPTION

       aafigure is an ASCII art to image converter.

       ASCII art figures can be parsed and output as SVG, PNG, PDF and more.

OPTIONS

       The program follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (--). Mandatory or optional arguments to
       long options are also mandatory or optional for any corresponding short options.

       -o, --output=file
	   Write output to file rather than to the standard output.

       -e, --encoding=encoding
	   Set character encoding for input text. The default is 'UTF-8'.

       -w, --wide-chars=properties
	   Specify which characters should be considered wide.	properties is a comma-separated list of East Asian width[1] symbols:

	   F
	       East Asian Fullwidth

	   H
	       East Asian Halfwidth

	   W
	       East Asian Wide

	   Na
	       East Asian Narrow

	   A
	       East Asian Ambiguous

	   N
	       Neutral (Not East Asian)

	   The default is 'F,W'.

       -t, --type=format
	   Use the provided output format. By default, output format is inferred from the output file name extension.

       -D, --debug
	   Enable debug outputs.

       -T, --textual
	   Disable horizontal fill detection.

       -s, --scale=scale
	   Use the specified scale.

       -a, --aspect=aspect
	   Use the specified aspect ratio.

       -l, --line-width=width
	   For SVG output format, use the specified line width.

       --proportional
	   Use a proportional font rather than a fixed-width font.

       -f, --foreground=#rrggbb
	   Use the specified foreground color. The default is black (#000000).

       -x, --fill=#rrggbb
	   Use the specified fill color. The default is the foreground color.
