-h | fB--help
On-line help.

-nd
Combined with -g; adds option -nodate (only ps output doesn't contain date!).

-k
Keep plot-file.

-p | --print
Plots the output on screen with Plotmtv if filename has been used.

-s scale
Vector scale (default: 1 px).

-tl label
Defines top label (title) (default: filename, if used).

-v | fB--version
Prints version information on standard output, then exits successfully.

BUGS

The program has been tested for PIV data. Watch out for filenames containing dots, apart from the separation with extension.
