NAME
       axohelp	- helper program for use of LaTeX package axodraw2 with	pdfla-
       tex.

SYNOPSIS
       axohelp [options] [filename]

DESCRIPTION
       Axohelp is a program used with the axodraw2, which is a	LaTeX  package
       for  drawing  Feynman  graphs (and some other simple graphics) in LaTeX
       documents.

       When the	axodraw2 package is used with pdflatex (or lualatex  or	 xela-
       tex)  it	 creates a file	with extension .ax1.  This contains specifica-
       tions of	the graphics elements.	Axohelp	converts this to a  file  with
       extension  ax2  that contains the necessary pdf code.  The .ax2 file is
       read by pdflatex	(etc) on its next run, and the contents	 of  the  .ax2
       file  are used in the final .pdf	output file to draw the	desired	graph-
       ics.

       The files processed are specified as follows: When the filename on  the
       command	line  is of the	form file.ax1, then the	input file is file.ax1
       and the output file is file.ax2.	If the filename	on  the	 command  line
       does not	have extension .ax1, then this extension is appended.

OPTIONS
       Options	can  be	 introduced by single or double	hyphen characters. The
       possible	options	are:

       -h, --help
	      Gives usage information

       -v, --version
	      Gives version information

       -V     NOT CURRENTLY IMPLEMENTED: Give  information  on	each  function
	      used.
