PROOFSERV(1)		    General Commands Manual		  PROOFSERV(1)

NAME
       proofserv - PROOF (The Parallel ROOT Facility)

DESCRIPTION
       Using  PROOF (The Parallel ROOT Facility) one can analyze trees in par-
       allel on	a cluster of computers.

       The proofserv(1)	is a basically the same	as the ROOT interactive	module
       root(1),	except that it reads its commands from	a  socket  instead  of
       from the	terminal.

       Since  it  is  a	remote server it will not do graphics and therefore is
       not linked with any graphics libraries (Motif, X11, etc.).

       proofserv is started by the daemon proofd(1) on request	by  the	 user.
       It is not a command to be executed by the user directly.

       Note,  that  if	proofserv  is  passed  any  arguments, it will use the
       libProofx interface, rather than	the standard libProof interface.
