NAME
       kig - an interactive geometry program for KDE

SYNOPSIS
       kig [-c, --convert-to-native [-o, --outfile filename]]
	   [KDE Generic Options] [Qt Generic Options]

DESCRIPTION
       Kig is an application for interactive geometry. It is intended to serve
       two purposes:

       ·  To  allow students to interactively explore mathematical figures and
	  concepts using the computer;

       ·  To serve as a WYSIWYG tool for drawing mathematical figures and  in‐
	  cluding them in other documents.

       With this program you can do geometry on a computer just like you would
       on a blackboard in a classroom. However the program allows you to  move
       and change parts of a geometrical drawing so that you can see how other
       parts change as a result.

       Kig supports loci and user-defined macros. It also imports and  exports
       both  to	 and from foreign file formats including Cabri, Dr. Geo, KGeo,
       KSeg and XFig.

       This application is part of the official KDE edutainment module.

OPTIONS
       App options, in a variablelist

       -c, --convert-to-native
	      Do not show a GUI. Instead convert the specified file to	native
	      Kig format. The native Kig file will be written to standard out‐
	      put unless --outfile is passed.

       -o, --outfile filename
	      Used with --convert-to-native to specify where to save the newly
	      created  Kig  file.  Not	specifying this option, or providing a
	      filename of - will output the file to standard output.

SEE ALSO
       More detailed user documentation is available  from  help:/kig  (either
       enter this URL into Konqueror, or run khelpcenter help:/kig).

       There is also further information available at the KDE Edutainment web‐
