POLY_WEAVE(1)

🌸 NAME 🌸

poly_weave — weave based on a polyhedron. Also hiiii, this is the POLY_WEAVE(1) page from the User Commands section, and your fave is about to explain it all 💖

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

poly_weave [options] [input_file]

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

Okay so here’s the whole vibe, bestie: poly_weave reads a file in OFF format and makes a weave following a specified pattern. The polyhedron faces get divided by a 'meta' operation into triangles, and each triangle has vertices which are a vertex V, an edge centre E, and a face centre F. A start point is positioned on one of these triangles, and the next point is found by using the pattern to step between triangles — that leads to a circuit. Intermediate points may be added along the steps to help with the weave. If input_file is not given, the program reads from standard input. No cap 🧚

✨ Options ✨

• -h, --help — this help message (run 'off_util -H help' for general help).
• --version — version information.
• -p <pat> — weave pattern (default 'FEV'), a series of one or more paths. A path is:
  • C,L — path of intermediate points is curve (default) or line (affects following paths, set as the first char of the pattern).
  • Barycentric coords V,E,F of initial point (default 0,1,0).
  • Optional intermediate points on the path — : followed by 0 to 3 coordinates for 'up' (def: 0), 'side' (def: 0), 'along' (def: equal spacing).
  • Series of characters to step between triangles:
    • - — stay on the same triangle.
    • V,E,F — step two triangles rotating about V,E,F.
    • R — Reverse direction of following rotations.
    • v,e,f — step over side opposite V,E,F.
    • t followed by l,r,b (def: tl) — start circuits from 'left', 'right', both triangles.
• -a — add the 'meta'-transformed base.
• -f <ht> — lift the face centres by this height.
• -o <file> — write output to file (default: write to standard output).
