aecat - display an aewan document

       This program is part of the Aewan Ascii Art Editor package.  See aewan(1) for author information.

       This is an utility program that will convert an aewan document to ANSI escape sequences so that it can be
       rendered  on  a  standard  terminal.  Alternatively,  it  can  also generate HTML code for displaying the
       document in a web page. Any particular layer of the document may be  converted,  or  you  may  request  a
       composite of all layers.

-f     specifies  output  format  -  can  "text",  "html" or "comment". Default is "text".  The "comment"
              format extracts document metadata.

       -c     prepend a 'clear screen' escape sequence (only valid when outputting text).

       -o<file>
              writes output to specified file rather than stdout

       -b     disables output of color (only characters will be printed).

       -l<layer_no>
              specifies which layer of the document is to be used (must be an  index,  not  a  layer  name).  By
              default, layer 0 will be used.

       -L     displays the number of layers in the file.

       -p     exports a composite, that is, overlays all visible layers, paying attention to layer transparency,
              etc. The size of the composite will be the size of the first layer

       -n     suppress output of newlines

       -h     prints a short help text
