Usage: slic3r.pl [ OPTIONS ] file.stl

    --help              Output this usage screen and exit
    --save <file>       Save configuration to the specified file
    --load <file>       Load configuration from the specified file. It can be used 
                        more than once to load options from multiple files.
    -o, --output <file> File to output gcode to (by default, the file will be saved
                        into the same directory as the input file using the 
                        --output-filename-format to generate the filename)
$j
  Output options:
    --output-filename-format
                        Output file name format; all config options enclosed in brackets
                        will be replaced by their values, as well as [input_filename_base]
                        and [input_filename] (default: $Slic3r::output_filename_format)
    --post-process      Generated G-code will be processed with the supplied script;
                        call this more than once to process through multiple scripts.
    --export-svg        Export a SVG file containing slices instead of G-code.
    -m, --merge         If multiple files are supplied, they will be composed into a single 
                        print rather than processed individually.
