SYNOPSISaecat [-b] [-c] [-{n|N}] [{-p | -l <layer_num>}] [-f <format>] [-o
<output_file>] inputfile
DESCRIPTION
This is an utility program that will convert an aewan document to ANSI
escape sequences so that it can be rendered on a standard terminal.
Alternatively, it can also generate HTML code for displaying the docu‐
ment in a web page. Any particular layer of the document may be con‐
verted, or you may request a composite of all layers.
OPTIONS-f specifies output format - can "text", "html" or "comment".
Default is "text". The "comment" format extracts document meta‐
data.
-c prepend a 'clear screen' escape sequence (only valid when out‐
putting text).
-o<file>
writes output to specified file rather than stdout
-b disables output of color (only characters will be printed).
-l<layer_no>
specifies which layer of the document is to be used (must be an
index, not a layer name). By default, layer 0 will be used.
-L displays the number of layers in the file.
-p exports a composite, that is, overlays all visible layers, pay‐
ing attention to layer transparency, etc. The size of the com‐
posite will be the size of the first layer
-n suppress output of newlines
-h prints a short help text
