PCL_PLYHEADER(1)

✨ NAME ✨

pcl_plyheader — bestie, it's literally just pcl_plyheader 💖

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

plyheader [OPTION] [[INFILE] OUTFILE]

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

Okay so picture this: you've got a PLY file and you only want the header part, not the whole entire vibe of it. That's it. That's the whole job. It extracts the header from a PLY file. Lowkey iconic, highkey useful. 🦋

And here are the options, no gatekeeping:

• -h, --help — shows you the help text and then dips. That's it, that's the whole thing. 👋
• -v, --version — spills the version info and then exits too. 💅

Now the tea on input and output: if you don't give it an INFILE or an OUTFILE, or if either one of them is -, it just reads from standard input and writes to standard output. So yes, you can absolutely pipe it. Periodt. 🌈

😭 REPORTING BUGS 😭

Found a bug? Not you being the main character of a horror story 💀 — go tell the people at <www.pointclouds.org/issues>. Fr fr, they wanna know.
