compare-histos

COMPARE-HISTOS(1)						   User Commands						 COMPARE-HISTOS(1)

NAME

       compare-histos - generate comparison histograms

SYNOPSIS

       compare-histos [options] aidafile1[:'PlotOption1=Value':'PlotOption2=Value'] [aidafile2 ...]

OPTIONS

       -h, --help
	      show this help message and exit

       -R, --rivet-refs
	      use Rivet reference data files (default)

       --no-rivet-refs
	      don't use Rivet reference data files

       -o OUTDIR, --outdir=OUTDIR
	      write data files into this directory

       --hier-out
	      write output dat files into a directory hierarchy which matches the analysis paths

       --plotinfodir=PLOTINFODIR
	      directory which may contain plot header information (in addition to standard Rivet search paths)

       --no-rmgapbins
	      disable attempting to remove 'gap' bins from MC histos when they don't appear in the ref file

       --refid=REF_ID
	      ID of reference data set (file path for non-REF data)

       --linear
	      plot with linear scale

       --logarithmic
	      plot with logarithmic scale (default behaviour)

       --mc-errs
	      show vertical error bars on the MC lines

       --no-ratio
	      disable the ratio plot

       --rel-ratio
	      show the ratio plots scaled to the ref error

       --abs-ratio
	      show the ratio plots with an absolute scale

       --no-plottitle
	      don't show the plot title on the plot (useful when the plot description should only be given in a caption)

       --style=STYLE
	      change plotting style: default|bw|talk

       -c CONFIGFILES, --config=CONFIGFILES
	      additional plot config file(s). Settings will be included in the output configuration.

       --show-single=SHOW_SINGLE
	      control  if  a  plot  file  is  made if there is only one dataset to be plotted [default=mc]. If the value is 'no', single plots are
	      always skipped, for 'ref' and 'mc', the plot will be written only if the single plot is a reference plot or an MC plot respectively,
	      and  'all' will always create single plot files.	The 'ref' and 'all' values should be used with great care, as they will also write
	      out plot files for all reference histograms without MC traces: combined with the -R /--rivet-refs flag, this is a great way to write
	      out several thousand irrelevant reference data histograms!

       --show-mc-only, --all
	      make  a  plot  file  even  if  there  is	only  one  dataset  to be plotted and it is an MC one. Deprecated and will be removed: use
	      --show-single instead, which overrides this.

       -m PATHPATTERNS, --match=PATHPATTERNS
	      Only write out histograms whose $path/$name string matches these regexes. The argument may also be a text file.

       -M PATHUNPATTERNS, --unmatch=PATHUNPATTERNS
	      Exclude histograms whose $path/$name string matches these regexes

       -q, --quiet
	      Suppress normal messages

       -v, --verbose
	      Add extra debug messages

       The plot options are described in the make-plots manual in the HISTOGRAM section.
