50   .SH DESCRIPTION
51   .I Rcontrib
52   computes ray coefficients
# Line 119 | Line 123 | Note that output flushing via zero-direction rays is d

124   set to zero.
125   .PP
126 + Output flushing at fixed intervals may be enabled with the
127 + .I \-x
128 + option, which specifies the number of records
129 + (-c accumulations) before each flush.
130 + If the
131 + .I \-y
132 + option is also set, then periodic flushing is disabled and the
133 + output size for an RGB image is the taken from the x and y dimensions.
134 + In lieu of periodic flushing, a flush may be forced as mentioned above
135 + by sending a sample with a zero direction vector, although you
136 + must still send a full record of rays before output occurs.
137 + .PP
138 + If progress reports are desired, the
139 + .I \-t
140 + option specifies a time interval in seconds for reports sent to
141 + standard error.
142 + This requires that the number of input samples is known, meaning a
143 + .I \-y
144 + parameter has been specified.
145 + .PP
146   The output of
147   .I rcontrib
148   has many potential uses.
