Woo: open-source platform for dynamic compuations, http://woodem.eu.

### positional arguments:

-

  simulation

### optional arguments:

- **-h**, **--help**

  show this help message and exit

**--version**

- **-j** THREADS, **--threads** THREADS

  Number of OpenMP threads to run; unset (0) by default, which means to use all available cores, but at most 4. Equivalent to setting OMP\_NUM\_THREADS environment variable.

- **--cores** CORES

  Comma-separated list of cores to use - determined number of OpenMP threads and sets affinity for those threads as well.

- **--cl-dev** CLDEV

  Numerical couple (comma-separated) givin OpenCL platform/device indices. This is machine-dependent value

- **-n**

  Run without graphical interface (equivalent to unsetting the DISPLAY environment variable)

- **-D**, **--debug**

  Run the debug build, if available.

- **--quirks** QUIRKS

  Bitmask for workarounds for broken configurations; all quirks are enabled by default. 1: set LIBGL\_ALWAYS\_SOFTWARE=1 for Intel GPUs (determined from \`lspci \| grep VGA\`) (avoids GPU freeze), 2: set **--in-gdb** when on AMD FirePro GPUs to avoid crash in fglrx.so (only when using the fglrx driver)

- **--flavor** FLAVOR

  Build flavor of woo to use.

- **--batch-table** BATCHTABLE

  Batch table file.

- **--batch-line** BATCHLINE

  Batch table line.

- **--batch-results** BATCHRESULTS

  Batch results file.

- **-c** COMMANDS

  Run these python commands after the start (use **-x** to exit afterwards)

- **-e** EXPR

  Evaluate this expression (instead of loading file). It should be a scene object or a preprocessor, which will be run

- **--paused**

  When proprocessor or simulation is given on the command-line, don't run it automatically (default)

- **--nice** NICE

  Increase nice level (i.e. decrease priority) by given number.

- **-x**

  Exit when the script finishes

- **-v**

  Increase logging verbosity; first occurence sets default logging level to info (only available if built with log4cxx), second to debug, third to trace.

- **-R**, **--rebuild**

  Re-run build in the source directory, then run the updated woo with the same command line except **--rebuild**. The build flavor for this build and its stored parameters will be used. If given twice, update from the repository will be attempted before recompilation.

- **--test**

  Run regression test suite and exit; the exists status is 0 if all tests pass, 1 if a test fails and 2 for an unspecified exception.

- **--no-gdb**

  Do not show backtrace when Woo crashes (only effective with \\-\\-debug).

- **--in-gdb**

  Run Woo inside gdb (must be in $PATH).

- **--in-pdb**

  Run Woo inside pdb

- **--in-valgrind**

  Run inside valgrind (must be in $PATH); automatically adds python ignore files

- **--fake-display**

  Allow importing the woo.qt4 module without initializing Qt4. This is only useful for generating documentation and should not be used otherwise.

## SEE ALSO

The full documentation for **ver.** is maintained as a Texinfo manual.  If the **info** and **ver.** programs are properly installed at your site, the command

-

  **info ver.**

should give you access to the complete manual.
