cell [-dfN] [-c #] [-M class] [-F rate] [-L rate] [-A alpha] [-o file] [file...]This manual page documents cell. This program is a one-pass interpreter of the CELL language, a simple line-oriented language for dynamic graphic drawing. cell read a source code written in the CELL language from the standard input or specified files. Every line in the source code is parsed and interpreted. The output is sent to either a window in SDL and OpenGL modes or a file in PostScript, AVI, and PDF modes.
Enable debugging using Smart::Comments module.
Run in full-screen mode in SDL and OpenGL modes. By default, the window size is set to 800x600 pixels.
Disable macro expansion with cpp (pre-processor for the C language).
Select the color map for gradient color. The color map is specified by the number (0 - 6). The supported color map is as follows.
0: HSV (Hue Saturation Value)
1: cyan-red
2: blue-orange
3: blue-yellow
4: purple-green
5: green-magenta
6: green-redGradient colors are named as `heat0', `heat1', ..., `heat100'. With the color map 0 (HSV), `heat0' is blue, `heat50' is green, and `heat100' is red. With the color map 4 (purple-green), `heat0' is purple, `heat50' is white, and `heat100' is green.
Specify the monitor class. By default, `SDL' monitor class is used. The supported monitor classes are:
SDL Draw in a window with SDL library
SDL_Filter SDL with blurring filter
OpenGL Draw in a window with OpenGL library
OpenGL_Filter OpenGL with blurring filter
PostScript Write to the standard out in PostScript language
Export::AVI Export to a file in AVI video format
Export::PDF Export to a file in PDF formatThe number of frames per animate/fade. The default frame rate is 30 (i.e., 30 frames per animate/fade).
The maximum number of frames per second. The default frame rate is 30 (i.e., 30 frames per second).
The alpha value for SDL_Filter and OpenGL_Filter monitor classes. The default value is 128.
Specify the filename of the output file for Export::AVI and Export::PDF monitor classes.

cell uses standard Perl's MakeMaker module. Thus, just type the following commands.
perl Makefile.PL
make
make installcell depends on several standard and non-standard Perl modules available in CPAN: Class::Accessor::Lite, File::Temp, Jcode, List::MoreUtils, List::Util, OpenGL, SDL, Smart::Comments, and Time::HiRes.
