  24 gnetlist has a command-line interface, and can be run using the <code>gnetlist</code> command in a terminal window.  For example, a normal command to run gnetlist on a design in order to generate a list of components used might look like this:
  25 </p>
  26 <pre class="code">gnetlist -g bom2 -o stepper.bom power-supply.sch motor-drive.sch</pre>
  27
  28 <p>
  29 To run gnetlist, you will usually need to <a href="geda-gnetlist_ug-input_output_files.html" class="wikilink1" title="geda-gnetlist_ug-input_output_files.html">specify a list of schematic files</a> to process; choose a <em><a href="geda-gnetlist_ug-netlist_backends.html" class="wikilink1" title="geda-gnetlist_ug-netlist_backends.html">netlist backend</a></em> to use to generate the output; and provide the name of the <a href="geda-gnetlist_ug-input_output_files.html" class="wikilink1" title="geda-gnetlist_ug-input_output_files.html">output file</a> in which to save the netlist.
  30 </p>

  33 gnetlist accepts a variety of <a href="geda-gnetlist_ug-command_line.html" class="wikilink1" title="geda-gnetlist_ug-command_line.html">optional arguments</a> that can be used to alter its behaviour.  They are also explained in the gnetlist manpage (which you can view by running <code>man gnetlist</code>).
