ReadWrite (1) Imagine File Converter 1993/01/31 ReadWrite (1)
NAME
readwrite - Convert Imagine files to/from ASCII text
SYNOPSIS
readwrite
[
options
]
[
input_file
]
[
output_file
]
DESCRIPTION
ReadWrite
will read either Imagine object files in their
binary (
TDDD
) or ASCII (
TTDDD
) formats, or will read an
Imagine staging file.
ReadWrite
will output any of the
above as well.
By default, all Turbo Silver "
EXTR
" objects are read in and
"internalized" so that Imagine can use them, since Imagine
does not support "external" objects.
When extracting a frame from a staging file, all objects
described in that frame must be accessible for reading in to
create the new Imagine output file.
OPTIONS
-
tddd
Output a binary
TDDD
file, ready for input into
Imagine.
-merge
Optimize the points and edges of all objects by
removing reduncancies (
i.e.
identical points and
edges).
-frame
#
Extract information from the input staging file
about the scene described in frame number "
#
" and
output an Imagine object containing all of the
contents of the described frame.
-v
|
-V
Verbose. Show information such as unknown IFF
chunks.
