NAME

g-nff - NFF Translator (BRL-CAD to NFF)

SYNOPSIS

g-nff [-v] [-i] [-xX lvl] [-e error_file] [-D calculation_tolerance] [-a abs_tol] [-r rel_tol] [-n norm_tol] [-o output.nff] database.g object(s)

DESCRIPTION

g-nff converts the specified object(s) from a BRL-CAD database.g file to the NFF file format. The -x option specifies an RT debug flag and the -X option specifies an NMG debug flag. The -a, -r, and -n options specify tessellation tolerances. The -D option specifies a calculational distance tolerance (mm). Any two vertices that are less than this distance apart will be treated as the same vertex. The -v option requests verbose output. The -i option requests the output file units to be inches (the default is mm). The -o option specifies the name of the file to receive the output (stdout is the default). The -e option specifies a file for receiving the error messages.
