PSPP can produce plain text output, drawing boxes using ASCII or Unicode line drawing characters. To produce plain text output, specify -o file on the PSPP command line, optionally followed by options from the table below to customize the output format.
Plain text output is encoded in UTF-8.
Specify the output format. This is only necessary if the file name given on -o does not end in .txt or .list.
Name for chart files included in output. The value should be a file name that includes a single ‘#’ and ends in png. When a chart is output, the ‘#’ is replaced by the chart number. The default is the file name specified on -o with the extension stripped off and replaced by -#.png.
Specify none
to disable chart output.
Sets color as the color to be used for the background or foreground to
be used for charts.
Color should be given in the format #RRRRGGGGBBBB
,
where RRRR, GGGG and BBBB are 4 character hexadecimal
representations of the red, green and blue components respectively.
If charts are disabled, this option has no effect.
Width of a page, in columns. If unspecified or given as auto
,
the default is the width of the terminal, for interactive output, or
the WIDTH setting (see SET), for output to a file.
Sets the characters used for lines in tables.
If set to
ascii
, output uses use the characters ‘-’, ‘|’, and ‘+’ for single-width
lines and ‘=’ and ‘#’ for double-width lines.
If set to unicode
then, output uses Unicode box drawing characters.
The default is unicode
if the locale’s character encoding is "UTF-8"
or ascii
otherwise.
How to emphasize text. Bold and underline emphasis are achieved with
overstriking, which may not be supported by all the software to which
you might pass the output. Default: none
