NAME
       llines - LifeLines genealogy program

SYNOPSIS
       llines [OPTION]...
       llines [OPTION]...Database

DESCRIPTION
       llines invokes the LifeLines genealogy program.

       For up to date documentation please refer to the Documentation section of this man page.

       LifeLines  is  a  program to manipulate genealogical information in lineage-linked GEDCOM format. It has a curses interface, and a built-in
       interpreter for its own genealogical report language.

OPTIONS
       The following options are some of the options available for llines.

       -C     Specify configuration file location.

       -F     Finnish option (only available if compiled with Finnish flag)

       -I     Specify a user property (e.g. -ILLEDITOR=gvim)

       -a     Log dynamic memory operation (for debugging)

       -c     Supply cache values (eg, -ci400,4000f400,4000 sets direct indi & fam caches to 400, and indirect indi & fam caches to 4000)

       -d     Developmental/debug mode (signals are not caught)

       -f     Force open a database (only for use if reader/writer count is wrong)

       -i     Open database with immutable access (no protection against other access -- for use on read-only media)

       -k     Always show key values (normally key is not shown if a REFN is shown)

       -l     Lock (-ly) or unlock (-ln) a database for use with read only media (access to a locked database is treated as immutable)

       -n     Do not use traditional family rules

       -o     Specify program output filename (eg, -o/tmp/mytests)

       -r     Open database with read-only access (protect against other writer access)

       -uCOLS,ROWS
	      Specify window size (eg, -u120,34 specifies 120 columns by 34 rows)

       -w     Open database with writeable access (protecte against other reader or writer access)

       -x     Execute a single lifelines report program directly

       -z     Use normal ASCII characters for drawing lines in user interface rather than the vt100 special characters

       -?     Display options summary, (on UNIX or Linux use the -h option)

       llexec is a version of llines without the user interface for non-interactive processing of report programs. (Typically  used  with  the	-x
       option.)

       dbverify is a utility program to verify Lifelines databases.  For information about options, run dbverify with the -h option.

	      Possible	locations for Lifelines configuration file Lifelines looks for a configuration file for various settings. See section Sys-
	      tem And User Properties in the userguide for details.

DOCUMENTATION
       The LifeLines documentation should be installed as part of the installation, and may also be  viewed  at  the  project  site:  http://life-
       lines.sourceforge.net.  Look for ll-userguide and ll-reportmanual (with appropriate extensions for text, html and pdf formats).	The normal
       installation process includes a large number of sample report programs that you can customize to suit your needs.  In  the  directory  con-
       taining these reports you should find a file named index.html which gives a very brief summary of each report.
