GET(nged)

NAME

get - Used to retrieve parameter values of database objects.

SYNOPSIS

get {object_name_pattern} [param_name]

DESCRIPTION

Low level command for extracting specific parameter information from geometry objects in a database. Similar to "attr get" except that the focus of this command is on geometric parameter values (vertices, for example) instead of attribute metadata.

EXAMPLES

Example 1. Elliptical Torus 'r' parameter extraction

Use the get command to exctract the r parameter value from an elliptical torus.

mged> make eto.s eto

mged> l eto.s

eto.s:  Elliptical Torus (ETO)
      V (0, 0, 0)
      N=(0, 0, 1)
      C=(200, 0, 200) mag=282.843
      r=800
      d=100

mged> get eto.s r

800
