.SH DESCRIPTION |
20 |
|
|
.I Getinfo |
21 |
|
|
reads the header of each RADIANCE |
22 |
|
|
.I file |
23 |
|
|
and writes it to the standard output. |
24 |
|
|
Octree and picture files are in a binary format, which makes |
25 |
|
|
it difficult to determine their content. |
26 |
|
|
Therefore, a few lines of text are placed at the beginning |
27 |
|
|
of each file by the RADIANCE program that creates it. |
28 |
|
|
The end of the header information and the start of the |
29 |
|
|
data is indicated by an empty line. |
30 |
|
|
The |
31 |
|
|
.I \-d |
32 |
|
|
option can be used to print the dimensions of an octree or |
33 |
|
|
picture file instead. |
34 |
|
|
For an octree, |
35 |
|
|
.I "getinfo \-d" |
36 |
|
|
prints the bounding cube (xmin ymin zmin size). |
37 |
|
|
For a picture, |
38 |
|
|
.I "getinfo \-d" |
39 |
greg |
1.4 |
prints the y and x resolution (\-Y yres +X xres). |
40 |
greg |

If no |
41 |
|
|
.I file |
42 |
|
|
is given, the standard input is read. |

The second form of |
45 |
|
|
.I getinfo |
46 |
|
|
with a hyphen simply removes the header |
47 |
greg |
1.1 |
and copies the body of the file from the standard |
48 |
|
|
input to the standard output. |
49 |

.PP |
50 |
|
|
The third form of |
51 |
|
|
.I "getinfo \-c" |
52 |
|
|
is followed by a command and its arguments, which is executed |
53 |
|
|
on the data segment of the standard input. |
54 |
|
|
The header is passed along, with the addition of the command |
55 |
|
|
at the end. |
56 |
|
|
This is roughly equivalent to the following sequence, but does not |
57 |
|
|
require the input to be in a file: |
58 |
|
|
.IP "" .2i |
59 |
|
|
( getinfo < input ; getinfo - < input | command .. ) |
