G-EUCLID(1)

NAME
g-euclid - EUCLID Translator (BRL-CAD to EUCLID)

SYNOPSIS
g-euclid [-v] [-xX lvl] [-a abs_tol] [-r rel_tol] [-n norm_tol] [-o euclid_file] database.g object(s)

DESCRIPTION
g-euclid converts the specified object(s) from a BRL-CAD database.g file to the "decoded" EUCLID format. The decoded file represents each object as a series of polygonal faces. Each face may be one of either a simple face (no holes), a complex face (contains at least one hole), or a simple hole. This converter creates a region for each object ID number by unioning together all the objects with the same ID number. The -x option specifies an RT debug flag and the -X option specifies an NMG debug flag. The -a , -r , and -n options specifiy tesselation tolerances. The -o option specifies the mame of the file to receive the output (stdout is the default).

EXAMPLE
    $ g-euclid -o sample.euclid sample.g sample_object

DIAGNOSTICS
Error messages are intended to be self-explanatory.
