- Generate a permuted index with automatically generated index references:

`ptx {{[-A|--auto-reference]}} {{path/to/file}}`

- Generate a permuted index with a fixed width:

`ptx {{[-w|--width]}} {{width_in_columns}} {{path/to/file}}`

- Generate a permuted index with a list of filtered words:

`ptx {{[-o|--only-file]}} {{path/to/filter}} {{path/to/file}}`

- Generate a permuted index with SYSV-style behaviors:

`ptx {{[-G|--traditional]}} {{path/to/file}}`
