NAME
       qelectrotech - Electric diagrams editor

SYNOPSIS
       qelectrotech [--common-elements-dir=DIR] [--config-dir-elements-dir=DIR] [--lang-dir=DIR] [--help] [-v|--version] [--license] [FILE]...

DESCRIPTION
       QElectroTech is an electric diagrams editor. Diagrams (*.qet) and electric elements (*.elmt) are stored using the XML format.  The elements
       that can be used in diagrams may come from the common collection or from the user's custom collection.  Typically, the common collection is
       readable by all users but it can't be edited by them.  Each user owns its custom collection he can modify as he wants.

OPTIONS
       --common-elements-dir=DIR
	      Uses  DIR as the common collection root directory. Note : this option is enabled only if the QET_ALLOW_OVERRIDE_CED_OPTION directive
	      has been specified at compilation time.

       --config-dir=DIR
	      Uses DIR as the current user's configuration directory. This directory hosts a file  named  qelectrotech.conf,  which  contains  the
	      application  configuration, and a subdirectory named elements, which contains the user's elements collection.  Note : this option is
	      enabled only if the QET_ALLOW_OVERRIDE_CD_OPTION directive has been specified at compilation time.

       --lang-dir=DIR
	      Looks for the application translation files in the directory DIR.

       --help Displays a short description of the available options.

       -v, --version
	      Displays the application version (e.g.: 0.1).

       --license
	      Displays the application license (GNU/GPL).  Note that if one of the three last options is specified in the command line,  the  pro-
	      grams  stops  after having displayed the adequate information.  If an instance of the application launched by the user is still run-
	      ning, this instance will consider the command line, and notably the files to open.  However, options that redefine directories (com-
	      mon  collection,	configuration and translation files) will not be considered.  If a filename ends with .elmt, QElectroTech will try
	      to open it into an element editor.  Otherwise, it will consider it as diagrams.
