NAME

aladin - Download dive information from a UWATEC Aladin dive computer

SYNOPSIS

aladin <configfile>

DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the aladin command. It was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

Aladin is a program that can be used to download and display dive profiles from a UWATEC Aladin dive computer, using the old Datatrak interface.

Aladin only takes one option which is the configuration file. If none is given, Aladin will try ~/.aladinrc then /etc/aladinrc. All the other commands are given at the prompt once the program has started.

The commands that can be entered at the prompt are:

get
Downloads the dive data from the Aladin.
plot <num>
Display depth profile graph of dive No. <num>.
lpr <num>
Print out the depth profile of dive No. <num> to your PostScript printer
<num>
Show the logbook data for dive No. <num>.
dump <file>
Print the contents of a file in text form (for debugging).
ls

rm <file>
Remove a file.
help

quit

put <file>
