mgticprune(1)

NAME
mgticprune - prunes the library to remove duplicates

SYNOPSIS
mgticprune [ -a n ] [ -s n ] [ -Q ] libraryfile
[ pruned-libraryfile ]

DESCRIPTION
mgticprune examines libraryfile and removes duplicate marks. If pruned-libraryfile is not specified, libraryfile is overwritten with the marks in the pruned library. The Combined Symbol Independent Strategy (CSIS) method is used to match marks.

OPTIONS
Options may appear in any order.

-h  This displays a usage line on stderr.

-a n
    Prune marks when their area is under or equal to the threshold, n. The default value is 3.

-s n
    Prune marks when their width and height is under or equal to the threshold, n. The default value is 0.

-Q  Use a quicker method of pruning. The number of iterations through the averaging and pruning processes is decreased. This usually reduces time by a half, but compression ratios decrease.

libraryfile
    This specifies the name of the library file

pruned-libraryfile
    This specifies the name of the prune library, after duplicates and matches have been removed. If this file is not specified, then libraryfile will be overwritten.
