MOVIE(9.1) MOVIE(9.1) NAME movie, stills - algorithm animation SYNOPSIS movie [ -t termprog ] [ -m memory ] [ file ] stills [ files ... ] DESCRIPTION Movie converts a `movie script' into an internal representation, then displays it in a window on a Teletype 5620, AT&T630, or X-11 system (depending on which version has been compiled). If the filename is of the form file.s, movie creates the intermediate form in file.i, which will be used in subsequent calls if it is more recent than file.s, The options are: -t termprog Load termprog instead of the default terminal program. -mmem Use mem bytes of terminal memory instead of the default. In the terminal, button 1 stops and starts the movie; button 2 adjusts view sizes and selects clicks; button 3 sets various parameters. Movie scripts A movie consists of multiple independent views, each presented as a rectangular sub-window. If no view statements appear, there is a sin- gle implicit view def.view. Any text or geometrical object may be la- beled with a name and colon. Labels and coordinates are local to views. A recurring label erases the previous object with that label. Comments follow #; blank lines are ignored. text options x y string Text is centered and medium size by default; options: one of center ljust rjust above below, and one of small medium big big- big. A leading quote is stripped from string, as is a trailing quote if a leading one is present. line options x1 y1 x2 y2 Lines are solid by default; options: one of fat fatfat dotted dashed and one of -> <- <->. box options xmin ymin xmax ymax A box may be filled. circle options x1 y1 radius Radius is measured in the x dimension. A circle may be filled. erase label Erase an object explicitly. clear Erase all objects currently in the current view. click optional-name Place a mark in the intermediate with this name; clicks are used to control stepping in a movie or to define frames for a set of stills. view name Associate subsequent objects with this view, until changed again. Stills converts selected frames of a movie into commands for pic(1). Commands for stills begin with .begin stills and end with .end stills. FILES All files are in /usr/lib/movie. Shell script to control conversion from script language to internal form. C program that does the work. Awk program to process stills language into pic(1). Host end of the animation system. terminal end. Test whether one file is newer than another. SEE ALSO flicks(9.1), pic(1) J. L. Bentley and B. W.
