PCL_CONVERT_PCD_ASCII_BINARY(1)

💅 PCL_CONVERT_PCD_ASCII_BINARY 💅

okay bestie, so this is a User Command — it lives in section 1 of the manual, under the name PCL_CONVERT_PCD_ASCII_BINARY(1), and it's here to flip your point cloud files between ascii and binary like it's nothing. no cap. 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

pcl_convert_pcd_ascii_binary — literally just pcl_convert_pcd_ascii_binary, that's the name, that's the whole vibe 🎀

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so here's the tea, the syntax is exactly this:

pcl_convert_pcd_ascii_binary <file_in.pcd> <file_out.pcd>
0/1/2 (ascii/binary/binary_compressed) [precision (ASCII)]

like, you hand it your <file_in.pcd>, you tell it where you want <file_out.pcd> to land, and then you pick your format with a lil number:

• 0 — ascii 🍓
• 1 — binary
• 2 — binary_compressed 🔥

and the [precision (ASCII)] bit is optional, only for when you're going ascii. it's giving ✨options✨, iykyk 💅
