<h1>ALE 0.5.1 User Manual</h1>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Purpose</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>This page summarizes ALE program operation and command-line usage. <!-- A list
|
|
of relevant URLs is provided at the end. -->
|
|
|
|
<p>Other manual pages in this section describe <a
|
|
href="rendering/">rendering</a> and <a href="alignment/">alignment</a>.
|
|
|
|
<p>For more information on ALE, see the <a
|
|
href="http://auricle.dyndns.org/ALE/">ALE Home Page</a>.
|
|
|
|
<h2>Program Operation and Usage</h2>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Parameter Meta-syntax</h3>
|
|
|
|
<table >
|
|
<tr>
|
|
<td><code> <foo></code></td>
|
|
<td>A required parameter called <i>foo</i>.</td>
|
|
</tr>
|
|
<tr>
|
|
<td><code>[<foo>]</code></td>
|
|
<td>An optional parameter called <i>foo</i>.
|
|
</tr>
|
|
<tr>
|
|
<td><code>[<foo>]*</code></td>
|
|
<td>Zero or more parameters <i>foo</i>.
|
|
</tr>
|
|
</table>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Command-line syntax for Version Information</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>The following command-line invocation can be used to print version
|
|
information and build options:
|
|
|
|
<pre>ale --version</pre>
|
|
|
|
The following is sample output from this invocation:
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
ALE Version: 0.5.1
|
|
File handler: ImageMagick
|
|
Bits per channel: 8
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
The above output indicates that the ALE version is 0.5.1, that ImageMagick is
|
|
being used to handle image files, and that a 24-bit color space is being used.
|
|
|
|
<h3>Command-line syntax for Help Output</h3>
|
|
|
|
When invoked with no options, or options detected as incorrect, ALE outputs a
|
|
help message specifying command-line usage and available options. The following
|
|
is a sample invocation:
|
|
|
|
<pre>ale</pre>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Command-line syntax for Image Processing</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>The following is the normal command-line invocation for ALE, and is used to
|
|
process a series of frames into an output file:
|
|
|
|
<pre>ale [<option>]* <original-frame> [<supplemental-frame>]* <output-file></pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>The original-frame parameter, and each supplemental-frame parameter, should
|
|
match the filename of an image file. Output will be written to the output file
|
|
specified.
|
|
|
|
<p>Depending on compile options, the file handler used may be ImageMagick or an
|
|
internal PPM file handler (use the --version flag to check this). When
|
|
ImageMagick is used for file handling, input files can be any of the <a
|
|
href="http://imagemagick.sourceforge.net/www/formats.html">types</a> that
|
|
ImageMagick can handle, and the output file type should be specified by file
|
|
extension. The internal PPM file handler can be used to read and write PPM
|
|
files only. However, on many platforms, ImageMagick's <a
|
|
href="http://www.imagemagick.org/">command line utilties</a> can be used to
|
|
convert between PPM and other file formats.
|
|
|
|
<p>Options are outlined in the <a href="rendering/">rendering</a> and <a
|
|
href="alignment/">alignment</a> subsections.
