The
Toxik executable files let you verify stored information, edit settings,
and perform certain tasks. The Toxik executable files reside in
the Toxik program directory
or in the Toxikbin directories
for Linux and Mac.
NoteAs the behavior of
Toxik is the same on a Linux or Mac workstation as on a Windows
workstation, the screen shots in this chapter were taken from Toxik running
on a Windows workstation.
You can access the executables
via a shell.
NoteThere are no file
extensions on Linux and MAC OS workstations. Therefore, the executables
don't have the “.exe” extension
as they do on Windows. However, the functionality of the executables
as well the list of command line parameters are identical on all
platforms.
You can get a list of
command line parameters for any Toxik executable by running the
executables without any parameters. In general, this provides some
form of usage/help message.
