NAME
          mathematica - Mathematica system for X

     SYNOPSIS
          mathematica

     DESCRIPTION
          The mathematica command runs the full Mathematica system
          including the notebook front end under X.

          Mathematica is an integrated system for technical
          computation, with extensive numerical, symbolic, graphical,
          programming, and interfacing capabilities.

          mathematica starts the Mathematica notebook front end, which
          calls the Mathematica kernel when computations need to be
          performed.

          The notebook front end supports Mathematica notebook
          documents. Notebook documents can contain text, graphics,
          and executable Mathematica input.  Shift-Return is normally
          used to evaluate Mathematica input.  The first evaluation in
          a session usually requires starting the kernel, and will
          therefore be slower.

          On initialization, Mathematica Reads application-specific
          resources from the file XMathematica.  A XMathematica file
          in your home directory will override any system-wide
          XMathematica file.

     OPTIONS
          -cleanStart
               Tells the front end to ignore caches stored in the
               user's home directory.

          -copyright
               Gives the current version number of the front end.

          -help
               Prints a listing of all available command line options.

          -mathlink
               Causes the front end to work in MathLink mode.

          -nosingleLaunch
               Allows multiple front ends to be running at the same
               time.

          -preferencesDirectory
               Allows you to specify the location where preferences
               are stored. By default this is set to
               ~/.Mathematica/3.0.

          -printCommand
               Takes one argument, which should be a shell command to
               send files to the printer, such as lpr or lp. This
               command will appear in the Print dialog box.

          -pureKeys
               Prevents manufacturer keycodes from being modified by
               anything except the Shift key. For example, some
               systems may have Control-[6] map to the onequarter
               keysym, and this will not work with the X front end.

          -querySingleLaunch
               Causes the front end to ask the user to verify whether
               only one front end should run when multiple Mathematica
               commands have been given.

          -singleLaunch
               Allows only one copy of the front end to exist per
               DISPLAY setting.

          -topDirectory
               Specifies the directory where Mathematica is installed,
               typically /usr/local/mathematica.

     FILES
          File locations are determined at installation time, or when
          the Mathematica distribution CD-ROM is mounted.

          Mathematica requires that special fonts be installed.
