NAME

       TOPCOM - triangulations of point configurations and oriented matroids

DESCRIPTION

       TOPCOM  programs  share  a  command-line  parsing  library.   Therefore,  all  TOPCOM programs accept the
       following options.  Note that some options are not relevant to all TOPCOM programs.

       Options concerning shell output:

       -h, --help
              summarize the program options.

       -v     write verbose information to stderr.

       --reportfrequency [N]
              report every Nth new triangulation.

       -d     write debug information to stderr.

       --heights
              write height vectors for triangulations to stdout (implies --regular).

       --flips
              write flips as pairs of triangulation IDs to stdout.

       Options for checking input:

       --checktriang
              check any given triangulations for correctness.

       Options for reporting properties of discovered triangulations:

       --flipdeficiency
              report flip deficiency in triangulations to stderr.

       --checkfrequency [N]
              check for regularity every Nth triangulation and exit if regular.

       Options concerning which triangulations are output (no influence on exploration):

       --cardinality [N]
              count/output only triangulations of cardinality N.

       --nonregular
              count/output only non-regular triangulations.

       Options concerning which triangulations are explored:

       --regular
              consider only regular triangulations.

       --noinsertion
              never use a point that is unused in the seed triangulation.

       --reducepoints
              try to remove the number of use points, reported to stderr.

       --keepcard
              never change the cardinality of triangulations by flipping.

       Options concerning symmetries:

       --affine
              assume that given symmetries are affine.

       --nosymmetries
              ignore symmetries.

       Options for dumping and reading the status of an interrupted computation:

       --dump dump status of previous computation (last completed BFS round) into file.

       --dumpfile [FILENAME]
              set dump file name to FILENAME (default: "TOPCOM.dump").

       --dumpfrequency [N]
              dump each Nth completed BFS round (default: 1).

       --dumprotations [N]
              dump into N rotating files.

       --read read status of previous computation (last completed BFS round) from file.

       --readfile [FILENAME]
              set dump file name to read to FILENAME (default: "TOPCOM.dump").

       Options concerning internal behaviour:

       --memopt
              try to reduce memory consumption.

       --chirocache [N]
              set the chirotope cache to N elements.

       --localcache [N]
              set the cache for local data to N elements.

       --soplex
              use soplex for regularity checks.  Note that soplex is not available from Fedora due to  its  non-
              free license.
