The Linux Manuals (man pages) document is an important part of Linux documents. Linux Manuals are organized as several sections. Each section has a group of commands for a specific area in Linux usage, administration or development.
scriptreplay – play back typescripts, using timing information Synopsisscriptreplay [options] [-t] timingfile [typescript [divisor]] DescriptionThis program replays a typescript, using timing information to ensure that output happens in the same rhythm as it originally appeared when the script was recorded.

screen – screen manager with VT100/ANSI terminal emulation Synopsisscreen [ –options ] [ cmd [ args ] ] screen -r [[pid.]tty[.host]] screen -r sessionowner/[[pid.]tty[.host]] DescriptionScreen is a full-screen window manager that multiplexes a physical terminal between several processes (typically interactive shells). Each virtual terminal provides the functions of a DEC VT100 terminal and, in addition,…
scpr – The scpr program is used to print out objects in checkpoint files. Running scprscpr takes the following command line options followed by a list of files. -o val Print the object with the name val. Object names take the form ‘<classname>:<ordinal_number>’. At least one file and object name must be given. -memorygrp val…
mtst – test the consistency of source meshes Synopsismtst [options] [mfile] [lfile]DescriptionThe mtst program checks, in a sequential way, the consistency of a Scotch source mesh and, in case of success, outputs some statistics regarding edge weights, node and element vertex weights, and node and element vertex degrees. Source mesh file mfile can only be…
mord – compute sparse matrix orderings of meshes Synopsismord [options] [mfile] [ofile] [lfile]DescriptionThe mord program computes, in a sequential way, an ordering of a Scotch source mesh representing the pattern of some symmetric sparse matrix. Only nodes of the mesh are effectively ordered. Elements provide connectivity information, such that every node is considered to be…
mmk_m2, mmk_m3 – create source meshes Synopsismmk_m2 [options] [-gcfile] dimX dimY [ofile] mmk_m3 [options] [-gcfile] dimX dimY dimZ [ofile]DescriptionThe mmk_* programs create source mesh files for some common, regular topologies. mmk_m2 creates a 2D regular mesh of dimX times dimY elements and (dimX+1) times (dimY+1) nodes, such that element (i,j) is connected to nodes (i,j),…
gtst – test the consistency of source graphs Synopsisgtst [options] [gfile] [lfile]DescriptionThe gtst program checks, in a sequential way, the consistency of a Scotch source graph and, in case of success, outputs some statistics regarding edge weights, vertex weights, and vertex degrees. It produces the very same results as the dgtst(1) program of the PT-Scotch…
gout – output graphics from matrices and graphs Synopsisgout [options] [gfile] [xfile] [mfile] [vfile]DescriptionThe gout program creates graphics files of various types, representing the Scotch graph and mapping data which is passed to it. Source graph file gfile can only be a centralized graph file. File xfile stores its associated geometry, whenever necessary. File mfile…
gomtst – compute statistics on sparse matrix orderings Synopsisgotst [options] [gfile] [ofile] [lfile]DescriptionThe gotst program computes, in a sequential way, statistics on a sparse matrix ordering, such as fill-in, operation count, and separator tree parameters: minimum, maximum, average height and variance of its leaves. Source graph file gfile can only be a centralized graph file….
gord – compute sparse matrix orderings of graphs Synopsisgord [options] [gfile] [ofile] [lfile]DescriptionThe gord program computes, in a sequential way, an ordering of a Scotch source graph representing the pattern of some symmetric sparse matrix.
