NAME
       cfetoolgraph - create graphs from a cfetool database

SYNOPSIS
       cfetoolgraph name [--path|-p directory name] [--daily|-d] [--weekly|-w]
       [--yearly|-y] [--timestamps|-T] [--resolution|-r] [--help|-h]

DESCRIPTION
       The cfetoolgraph command dumps graphs of averages for visual inspection
       of the normal state database. The files are in a format viewable by
       "gnuplot" or "xgmr" or other graphical plotting program.

       The command generates three or four files in a subdirectory of the
       database directory with a name beginning with either "daily", "weekly"
       or "yearly", then "-", then either "snapshot" or the current time, if
       the -T option is used.  The files are named "average", "stddev", and
       "graph". The "graph" file contains both the averages and standard
       deviations, useful for plotting with error bars.

       If a histogram file is present, a fourth file named "distr" will also
       be created, plotting the distribution of fluctuations about the mean
       value.

       If the -d, -w and -y options are all omitted, the default is to only
       graph the weekly database.

OPTIONS
       --path|-p directory name
           The directory in which the database specified by name can be found.

       --daily|-d
           Graph the daily averages database.

       --weekly|-w
           Graph the weekly averages database.

       --yearly|-y
           Graph the yearly averages database.

       --timestamps|-T
           Time-stamp the output filenames with the current time, in order to
           give a unique name.

       --resolution|-r
           Generate high resolution data (), instead of averaging data over
           periods of one hour to generate simpler and smoother graphs.

       --help|-h
           Prints a short help message and then exits.

EXAMPLE
         % cfetoolgraph temperature --path /my/path --resolution

       Create graph files of the weekly database in high resolution in the
       "/my/path/temperature/weekly-snapshot" directory.
