PYGALMESH(1)

πŸ’– PYGALMESH πŸ’–

okay bestie, gather round, because we're talking about pygalmesh β€” it's in the User Commands section of the manual, and it literally does what it says: create high-quality meshes with ease. no cap. πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

pygalmesh β€” create high-quality meshes with ease πŸ¦‹


🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

here's the whole vibe, the usage line, exactly as it comes:

usage: pygalmesh [-h] [--version]

       {from-inr,remesh-surface,volume-from-surface} ...

so like. it's the pygalmesh command-line tools. that's the whole thing. and then we get into the details πŸ‘‘

πŸ’… optional arguments:

  • -h, --help β€” shows this help message and then dips. exit stage left. 🫢
  • --version, -v β€” displays the version information, so you can be like "which one am i even running" πŸ’€

🧚 subcommands:

  • {from-inr,remesh-surface,volume-from-surface} β€” the three main character subcommands, listed right here, all of them ✨

and here's what each one actually does:

  • from-inr β€” creates a volume mesh from INR voxel files πŸ“¦
  • remesh-surface β€” remeshes a surface mesh πŸ”
  • volume-from-surface β€” generates a volume mesh from a surface mesh 🌈

pygalmesh is a Python frontend to CGAL's 2D and 3D mesh generation capabilities. and the way it just… makes it easy to create high-quality 2D, 3D volume meshes, periodic volume meshes, and surface meshes? iconic. genuinely. it ate. πŸ’–

so the version situation is:

pygalmesh 0.10.5 [Python 3.9.7, CGAL 5.3]

and the legal bit, because we respect our elders:
