Introduction

Geocap has a powerful shell command language consisting of more than 200 commands (see Reference Manual). Their are used for visualization and data manipulation. Nearly all basic functionality in the software have an equivalent in a shell command. The Geocap shell command language is defined on top of Tcl commands and benefits from the Tcl command features like use of variables, if-then-else-while-do constructions and general input and output. In addition Geocap supports the Tcl extension QTcl which enabled the user to generate any kind of user interface or menu to a script.

A combination of the Geocap shell-, Tcl- and QTcl-commands can be scripted into fully functional commands with menus, which can be executed directly on a dataset or folder in a project, the same way as the built-in commands in Geocap.
