DESCRIPTION
-
Cpr
creates an image from a list of polygons in three dimensions.
Its output is a picture file, written to standard output.
The
-w
flag sets the width and height of the output file. The default
size is 640&215;480.
The
-a
flag indicates the aspect ratio of the image. The default aspect ratio is
the ratio of the output file's width and height, in pixels.
It may be set independently to handle displays with non-square pixels.
The
-c
flag indicates which channels the output image should have. Possible values are
-crgb
(the default),
-crgba,
and
-crgbaz.
Cpr's
input is a simple textual command language, read from the input files
named on the command line (default standard input). Each command
is a single character followed by arguments, separated by spaces.
The commands are:
-
v fov near far ex ey ez lx ly lz ux uy uz
- Set viewing parameters.
Fov
is the horizontal field-of-view angle.
(ex,
ey,
ez)
is the eye location from which the scene is viewed.
These and all other coordinates are floating point values.
(lx,
ly,
lz)
is the location the eye is looking at a point that
the viewing transformation will map to the center of the screen.
(ux,
uy,
uz)
indicates the up direction. It is the coordinate of a point
that the viewing transformation will map somewhere on the ray
ascending from
(lx,
ly,
lz)
through the top of the screen. Exactly where on that ray the image of
(ux,
uy,
uz)
is depends on the field of view angle.
Near
and
far
are the distances from the eyepoint to the near and far clipping planes.
Objects closer than
near
or farther than
far
will not be displayed. Both
near
and
far
must be positive, with
far>near.
- t x0 y0 z0 x1 y1 z1 x2 y2 z2 c0 c1
- draw a triangle.
(x0,
y0,
z0),
(x1,
y1,
z1),
and
(x2,
y2,
z2)
are the corners of the triangle.
C0
and
c1
are the colors of the two sides of the triangle, with
c0
being the color of the side from which the
vertices are viewed clockwise. Color values are integers
with absolute values no larger than 255. Their absolute values
index a table of colors whose entries are set using the
c
command (vide infra). A positive color indicates that
the object should be drawn in exactly that color;
a negative value means that the polygon should be a shade
of that color computed according to the light source position.
- p c0 c1
- draw a polygon.
C0
and
c1
are the colors of its two sides. The
(x,
y,
z)
values are its vertices.
- h c0 c1 nx ny x0 y0 x1 y1 file
- draw a height field from a file of
z
values.
C0
and
c1
are its colors.
X0,
y0,
x1,
and
y1
give the range of
x
and
y
values.
The
file
contains an array of
nx
by
ny
floating point numbers, in row major order, in the native
floating-point representation of the machine running
cpr.
This is not portable.
- s c0 c1 x y z r
- draw a sphere of the given color, with center at
(x,
y,
z)
and radius
r.
- {
- push the transformation stack.
Cpr
maintains a stack of transformation matrices.
The following transformation commands operate on the top of the
stack. All objects to be drawn are operated on by this transformation.
- }
- pop the transformation stack
- R angle axis
- Rotate by the given
angle
(in degrees) about the specified
axis,
which must be 0 for
x,
1 for
y,
or 2 for
z.
- T dx dy dz
- Translate by the given offset
- S sx sy sz
- Scale by the given factors in the
x,
y,
and
z
directions.
- M m00 m01 m02 m03 m10 m11 ... m33
- Multiply the top of the transformation stack by the given matrix.
- c num r g b a
- Set the red, green, blue and ALPHA components of the numbered color table entry.
Color components must be integers between 0 (black) and 255 (full on).
- l x y z
- Set the direction that the light source shines from.
- b r g b a
- Clear the background to the given color.
Cprview
displays a wire frame version of a
cpr
image in a window.
Dragging with button 1 rotates the image.
Button 2 pops up a
reread
menu item that causes the input files to be reread.
Button 3 pops up a menu
containing
output
and
exit
items.
Output
writes a
pic(1)
representation of the display on standard output.
Exit
exits.
