.SH NAME
trick-dp \- Trick data products tools
.SH SYNOPSIS
\fBtrick-dp\fP
.SH DESCRIPTION
Trick data products are simulation data post processors designed to visualize
data recorded in a Trick simulation.  The data products can plot ASCII, binary and
HDF5 data. \fItrick-dp\fP is the front end to the tool set allowing users to
choose which simulation runs to plot and which plots/tables to produce based on
which data product files are chosen.
.SH FILES
.TP
\fISIM_<simulation>/RUN_<run>\fP
The simulation directories containing recorded data.
.TP
\fISIM_<simulation>/DP_Product\fP
Directory containing data product files.  Data product files specify how to layout
plots and tables and specify which simulation variables to plot.
.TP
\fISession.xml\fP
Saves the state of the trick-dp selections.  Can be used to bring up plots and
tables without starting a trick-dp interactive session.

.PP
All Trick model developers and users should go through the tutorial found
in the \fITrick Simulation Environment User Training Materials\fP.
The canonical reference for all Trick commands, files and utilities is the
\fITrick Simulation Environment User's Guide\fP.  Information specific to a
given release of Trick tools is contained in the \fITrick Simulation
Environment Version Description\fP for that release.
