verbose = true |
produce readable
messages to see what's going on, otherwise both programs will show
only error messages
|
interactive = true
|
start pdx always in interactive mode, not recommended
|
encoding = UTF-8 |
tells pdx the encoding of the
console where pdx runs, this encoding is also used if we don't
have any better specification. This option is responsible for
handling text correctly (for instance comments, especially text
with german umlauts) in all inputs and outputs. On a modern system
you will use UTF-8 or
ISO-8859-1, depending
on what your shell is using. pdx allows ASCII, UTF-8, UTF-16, ISO-8859-1, ISO-8859-15, Windows1252, ASCII/CP437 and ASCII/CP850. |
midnight = 2:00
|
defines the time to be used as
"logical midnight". This option has an impact on functions of pdx,
for instance on the statistic functions, and allows a value which
comes after midnight still to belong to the previous day. This has
been found useful in many situations. If this option is not set
0:00 is being used for "logical midnight". |
period = from to color |
defines a time period.
from and to are dates, color is a color in the well
known # notation,
Example:
period = 2011-01-27
2011-03-19 #EFEFEF
There could be many of such definitions in the .pdrxrc file. pdx
will colorize the background of it's diagrams in the specified
color if a diagram contains a time span from a defined time
period. This is very helpful for visualizing holidays, travels or
experimental phases. |
