aecat - display an aewan document

aecat [-b] [-c] [-{n|N}] [{-p | -l <layer_num>}] [-f <format>] [-o <output_file>] inputfile

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 document in a web page. Any particular layer of the document may be converted, or you may request a composite of all layers.

-f
specifies output format - can "text", "html" or "comment". Default is "text". The "comment" format extracts document metadata.
-c
prepend a 'clear screen' escape sequence (only valid when outputting 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, paying attention to layer transparency, etc. The size of the composite will be the size of the first layer
-n
suppress output of newlines
-h
prints a short help text
