XMDS2(1)

👑 XMDS2 — the eXtensible Multi-Dimensional Simulator v2

okay bestie, welcome to the User Commands section of the manual, and buckle up because this one is a whole vibe. ✨ This is xmds2(1), and it's genuinely iconic.

🌈 SYNOPSIS

xmds2 [options] fileToBeParsed

💖 DESCRIPTION

so xmds2 is a code generator that integrates equations. that's the whole thing. that's the girlboss energy. 🎀

here's the tea: you write your equations down in human readable form inside an XML file, and then it literally goes away and writes and compiles a C++ program that integrates those equations as fast as it can possibly be done in your architecture. no cap. it's giving "I'll handle the hard part, you go be a genius." 💅

and if you wanna know how to actually write a script for xmds, or how to solve problems in physics, mathematics, and even finance and economics (yes really, she does it all 🫶), go read the associated documentation, available from the xmds web site: http://www.xmds.org.

✨ OPTIONS ✨

• -h, --help — prints the help message. bestie behavior honestly, always ask for help when you need it 💖
• -o file, --output-file=file — overrides the name of the output file to be generated. you're renaming the baby 🎀
• -v, --verbose — verbose mode. she will tell you EVERYTHING. yapper mode activated 🗣️
• -g, --debug — debug mode. compiler error messages report errors in the .cc file, not the .xmds file. implies --verbose. mostly useful when debugging xmds code generation. > heads up: this changes where your errors point, so don't get confused when it's talking about .cc instead of .xmds 😭
• -n, --no-compile — only generate a source file, don't compile. she writes the homework but doesn't submit it 📝
• --configure — runs configuration checks for compiling simulations. vibe check for your whole setup ⭐
• --reconfigure — runs configuration using the same options as used with the last time --configure was run, with the additional arguments specified. she remembers what you told her last time 🧠✨
• --include-path /path/to/include — adds the path /path/to/include to the list of paths searched for include headers. this option is only meaningful when used with --(re)configure. 👀
• --lib-path /path/to/lib — adds the path /path/to/lib to the list of paths searched for libraries. this option is only meaningful when used with --(re)configure. same energy, different folder 💜

🌸 FILES

• ${HOME}/.xmds/ — directory for storing settings and fftw wisdom files. yes, "wisdom files." she's keeping secrets in there and honestly? iconic. 🦋

the "and others" is doing so much heavy lifting and we love that for them 💀 no but fr, thank you to everyone who built this.

and that's the whole page, bestie. this was xmds2 — source xmds2, dated December 2012, living in the XMDS2(1) manual. slay, go integrate some equations. 💅✨🎀
