Name

regina-gui — Regina's graphical user interface

Synopsis

regina-gui [file...]

Description

Regina is a software package for studying 3-manifold triangulations, normal surfaces and angle structures. Other key features include census enumeration, combinatorial recognition of triangulations, and high-level tasks such as 3-sphere recognition and connected sum decomposition. Regina comes with a full graphical user interface, and also offers Python bindings and a low-level C++ programming interface.

This starts the full graphical user interface, and is the usual way of starting Regina. Any files passed on the command-line will be opened on startup.

MacOS X Users

If you downloaded a drag-and-drop app bundle, this is the program that runs when you open it. The executable itself is simply called Regina, not regina-gui.

Regina comes with a rich users' handbook, which you can access via Help->Regina Handbook in the menu. You can also read the users' handbook online at regina.sourceforge.net.
