ascend \- A modelling environment for solving equations

.SH SYNOPSIS
.B ascend

Usage: ascend [[-m typename] file

Options:
  --version             show program's version number and exit
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -m MODEL, --model=MODEL
                        specify the model to instantiate upon loading modules
  --pygtk-assets=ASSETS_DIR
                        override the configuration value for the location of
                        assets required by PyGTK for the ASCEND GUI, optional
  --library=LIBRARY_PATH
                        override the configuration value for the library path
  --no-auto-sim         disable auto-instantiation of MODEL named as the file

.SH DESCRIPTION

\fbascend\fR will run the ne PyGTK GUI for ASCEND. It gives console output
as well as using a GTK window.

\fBASCEND\fR (or \fBascend\fR) is modelling program that allows you
to solve systems of equations. You write model files (*.a4c) that describe
your system of equations, then you load them into the ASCEND GUI and examine
and solve your equations. For more information see the ASCEND wiki at
