     _G_e_t_e_p_s_l_a_y understands the following options:

     ----vvvv        Verbose mode.

     ----rrrr        Rotate the picture so that x-axis is along the
	       long side of the paper.

     ----bbbb        Include a bounding box around the layout.

     ----tttt        Plot terminals with a cross and the terminal name.

     ----TTTT        Simulate transparency of the interconnect layers.

     ----FFFF        Simulate full transparency of all layers.  Implies
	       ----TTTT.

     ----ssss        Include symbolic masks. They are excluded by
	       default.

     ----oooo _m_a_s_k_l_i_s_t
	       Process only the masks in _m_a_s_k_l_i_s_t.  _M_a_s_k_l_i_s_t is a
	       comma- or blank-separated list of masknames.

     ----nnnn _m_a_s_k_l_i_s_t
	       Exclude the masks in _m_a_s_k_l_i_s_t from processing.

     ----wwww _w_i_d_t_h  Specifiy width of picture in cm.

     ----hhhh _h_e_i_g_h_t Specifiy height of picture in cm.

     ----llll _l_a_m_b_d_a_s_c_a_l_e
	       Specifiy the lambda scale, i.e. the number of
	       lambda's per centimeter.

     ----pppp _s_t_y_l_e  Specify the file ``epslay._s_t_y_l_e'' in the appropri-
	       ate section of the Nelsis process library as the
	       technology file.  The technology file defines the
	       appearance of the plotted layout.  The default
	       file is ``epslay.def''.

     ----PPPP _t_e_c_h_f_i_l_e
	       Specify another technology file.

     ----eeee        Assume the layout is already expanded, do not run
	       the makeboxl and makegln preprocessors.

     In case more than one of the ----wwww,,,, ----hhhh and ----llll options is used,
     the last setting overrides.  Similarly for ----pppp and ----PPPP,,,, and
     for ----oooo and ----nnnn....

     _G_e_t_e_p_s_l_a_y is a program that creates a postscript file from a
     layout, whereby each mask is plotted with a particular stip-
     ple pattern as specified in a technology file.  The file may
     then be printed on any postscript printer, or included in a
     document created with, for example, TeX or troff.

     The output is in the file _c_e_l_l_n_a_m_e.eps.

     The postscript produced is well behaved, and apart from a
     showpage command, it is encapsulated postscript.

     The default picture size is A4, minus some small margins.

     To modify the appearance of the layout, the resulting
     postscript can be edited.	Alternative technology files can
     also be specified by using the ----PPPP or ----pppp option.

     Warning: when using the ----TTTT or ----FFFF option, the resulting out-
     put file can be much larger than when not using one of these
     options.  For large designs, the output file can nearly dou-
     ble in size.
