bot_dump
The
-b
option may be specified to indicate that the output file should be in
a binary format (e.g., for formats that support ascii and binary
formats like stl).
If the
-n
option is specified, BoT surface normals will be included in the output
of
obj
files. This option is specific to
obj
file generation since normal vector outputs are already an integral
part of the
stl
file outputs and both the
dxf
and
sat
file formats do not support or require surface normal generation.
If the
-m
option is specified, then BoTs will be output to the directory name
specified with one BoT per file.
The
-o
option specifies what output file the BoT data should be dumped to.
The
-t
is used to specify the desired output file type. The default output
type is STL in ASCII format.
The
-u
option takes a units string that indicates the unit conversion to
perform during output (converting from internal millimeter values to
the unit type specified).
