NAME
     aecat - display an aewan document

SYNOPSIS
     aecat  [-b]  [-c]	[-{n|N}] [{-p | -l <layer_num>}] [-f <format>] [-o <out-
     put_file>] inputfile

DESCRIPTION
     This is an utility program that will convert an aewan document to ANSI  es-
     cape  sequences so that it can be rendered on a standard terminal. Alterna-
     tively, it can also generate HTML code for displaying the document in a web
     page. Any particular layer of the document may be converted, or you may re-
     quest a composite of all layers.

OPTIONS
     -f     specifies output format - can "text", "html" or  "comment".  Default
	    is "text".	The "comment" format extracts document metadata.

     -c     prepend a 'clear screen' escape sequence (only valid when outputting
	    text).

     -o<file>
	    writes output to specified file rather than stdout

     -b     disables output of color (only characters will be printed).

     -l<layer_no>
	    specifies  which layer of the document is to be used (must be an in-
	    dex, not a layer name). By default, layer 0 will be used.

     -L     displays the number of layers in the file.

     -p     exports a composite, that is, overlays all	visible  layers,  paying
	    attention to layer transparency, etc. The size of the composite will
	    be the size of the first layer

     -n     suppress output of newlines

     -h     prints a short help text
