.SH DESCRIPTION |
| 15 |
.I Genbox |
| 16 |
produces a RADIANCE scene description of a parallelepiped |
| 17 |
with one corner at the origin and the opposite corner at |
| 18 |
.I "(xsiz, ysiz, zsiz)." |
| 19 |
The sides of the box will be parallel to the three coordinate |
| 20 |
planes. |
| 21 |
The surfaces that make up the box will be modified by |
| 22 |
.I mat |
| 23 |
and their identifiers will begin with |
| 24 |
.I name. |
| 25 |
The |
| 26 |
.I \-i |
| 27 |
option can be used to produce a box with inward directed surface |
| 28 |
normals. |
| 29 |
The |
| 30 |
.I \-r |
| 31 |
option can be used to specify the radius for rounded edges. |
| 32 |
The |
| 33 |
.I \-b |
| 34 |
option can be used to specify the indentation for beveled edges. |
| 35 |
.SH EXAMPLE |
| 36 |
To produce a rectangular box made of wood with beveled edges: |

.SH BUGS |
| 42 |
Because spheres and cylinders are used to construct boxes with |
| 43 |
rounded edges, a transparent box of this type appears quite messy. |
