PROGRAM:
NAME
gff2ps - Produces PostScript graphical output from GFF-files.
SYNOPSIS
gff2ps [options] -- gff_files
DESCRIPTION
This program draws color-filled DotPlots from files with gff-formatted data fields. The
program takes as input the annotated features on a genomic sequence in GFF format, and
produces a visual output in PostScript.
OPTIONS
-h Show summary of options.
-H <option>
Shows only help for the especified option.
-V Verbose mode, a full report is sent to standard error (default only sends
Warnings).
-v Silent mode: Disable all warnings, no messages sent to standard error.
-d Write (or rewrite if exists) default customfile.
-D <default_custom_filename>
Create a new default customfile with the given filename.
-C <custom_filename>
Load given custom file and append to default custom file (.gff2psrc).
-s <page_size>
Useful to modify page size (default is a4).
-p Switches page orientation to Portrait (default is Landscape).
-G <color_name>
Sets color for FOREGROUND (default is black).
-g <color_name>
Sets color for BACKGROUND (default is white).
-P <#> Sets how many pages are needed to split your output (default is one).
-S <#> Zoom first nucleotide (default is sequence origin).
-E <#> Zoom last nucleotide (default is sequence length).
-B <#> Sets blocks per page (default is one).
-N <#> Sets nucleotides per line (default is the largest sequence position from input gff-
files).
-b Blocks from left to right and from top to bottom (default is top to bottom first).
-L Switch off Header (Title area).
-T <title_string>
Defining title (default is input gff filename).
-t <subtitle_string>

-l Does not show page numbering.
-O Does not show date.
-o Does not show time.
-M <#> Number of major tickmarks per line (default 10).
-K <#> Major tickmarks scale in nucleotides, default is nucleotide length for lines
divided by major tickmarks number (see option -T).
-m <#> Number of minor tickmarks between major tickmarks (default 10).
-k <#> Minor tickmarks scale in nucleotides default is major tickmarks size divided by
minor tickmarks number (see option -t).
-w, -f Switch off displaying forward-strand(Watson) elements.
-c, -r Switch off displaying reverse-strand(Crick) elements.
-i Switch off displaying strand-independent elements.
-0 <color_name>
Sets color for frame "0" (default is blue).
-1 Sets color for frame "1" (default is red).
-2 Sets color for frame "2" (default is green).
-3 Sets color for frame "." (default is orange).
-n Switch off labels for element positions.
-a Switch off CopyRight line on plot.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
There are three environmental variables that can be set by users to their pre ferences:
+ You can specify the path where GFF2PS can find the default files with the shell
variable "GFF2PS_CFDIR". Default value is path where you are running GFF2PS.
+ You can also define the default custom filename you will like with the variable
"GFF2PS_CUSTOMFILE", program default filename for custom file is ".gff2psrc".
+ GFF2PS needs to write few temporary files in a directory with permissions for current
user to read and write. Default temporary directory path is set to "/tmp/" but you can
assign a different temporary directory path using the variable "GFF2PS_TMP".
Setting those vars in Bourne-shell (bash):
export GFF2PS_CFDIR="path"
export GFF2PS_CUSTOMFILE="file_name"
export GFF2PS_TMP="path"
Using a C-Shell (csh):
setenv GFF2PS_CFDIR "path"
setenv GFF2PS_CUSTOMFILE "file_name"
setenv GFF2PS_TMP "path"
