OPTIONS
-pdf Generate .mps files (default) -mp Generate .mp files -png Generate .png files -ps Generate .1 files -latex <main.tex> Scan the LaTeX prelude -eps Generate encapsulated postscript files -xpdf WYSIWYG mode using xpdf remote server (the name of the remote server is "mlpost") -v Be a bit more verbose. Otherwise nothing is printed except in case of error. -ocamlbuild Use ocamlbuild to compile -native Compile to native code -ccopt <options> Pass <options> to the Ocaml compiler -execopt <options> Pass <options> to the compiled program -version Print Mlpost version and exit -no-magic Do not parse mlpost options, do not call Metapost.dump -depend output dependency lines in a format suitable for the make(1) utility -contrib <contrib-name> compile with the specified contrib -dumpable output one name of dumpable file by line. So it print all the figures which will be created by the .ml file. -get-include-compile {cmxa|cma|dir|file} output the libraries which are needed by the library Mlpost if you want not to use the mlpost tool : - cmxa print the needed cmxa file (opt version) - cma print the needed cma file (byte version) - dir print the directories needed to be include - file print the file name inside this directory without extension -compile-name <compile-name> Keep the compiled version of the .ml file and name it <compile-name>. -dont-execute Don't execute the mlfile. So mlpost generates no figures. With this option you can check that a file compile without wasting time to generate the figures. The options -dont-execute and -compile-name can be used in conjunction to create a program which generates some figures according to some command line options. -dont-clean Don't remove intermediates files. The metapost backend use some intermediates files which are removed without this option. -cairo Use the cairo backend instead of metapost -t1disasm Set the program used to decrypt PostScript Type 1 font, only with cairo (default built-in one). This option will disappear soon. -help, --help Display the list of options
