NAME

       prompt - give any program command-line editing facilities

SYNOPSIS

       prompt

DESCRIPTION

       prompt is a simple wrapper which provides command-line editing for programs that do not have it.

       Not all programs with a command line interface provide an input history or even the ability to use the cursor keys to change the input. The
       prompt program wraps any program, intercepting stdin, stdout and stderr and providing the user with such editing facilities.

NAME

       cadabra - field-theory motivated computer algebra system

SYNOPSIS

       cadabra

DESCRIPTION

       Cadabra is a computer algebra system for the manipulation of tensorial expressions.

       The output of cadabra is either plain text or UTF8 encoded Unicode (see the environment variables described below). The line-breaking prop-
       erties of the latter are used to wrap large expressions are reasonable points. In addition to the standard output, cadabra can print status
       information, which is wrapped in special <status>...</status> blocks.

OPTIONS

	--silent
	      Disables all output, except for output generated by the @print algorithm.

	--loginput
	      Copy the input into the log file.

	--input filename
	      Read the indicated file as input before switching to console input.

	--prompt string
	      Set the prompt of the interactive session to the indicated string.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       The following variables toggle various features on or off, depending on whether the variable is set or not:

	CDB_PRINTSTAR
	      Display a star to indicate products. Without this setting, a space is used.

	CDB_USE_UTF8
	      Use  UTF8  encoding  for	output. This in particular will introduce non-breakable spaces to group objects together, as well as zero-
	      width non-breakable spaces to prevent line-breaks after brackets, underscore and caret symbols.  When this variable is not set,  the
	      output will be plain ASCII without any special symbols.

SEE ALSO

       xcadabra(1).
