SPH_RINGS(1)

💖 NAME 💖

SPH_RINGS(1) is the manual page, bestie — User Commands section, and the actual name is sph_rings - rings of points on a sphere ✨

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

sph_ring [options] num_rings num_divs

Okay yes the page is SPH_RINGS(1) but the command is sph_ring — the way that detail matters 😭💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

It distributes points on rings on a sphere. num_rings is the number of rings between the poles. num_divs is the number of points on each ring, or if it's not given, then it is as many points as will fit in each ring at least a band's width apart. No cap.

✨ Options ✨

• -h, --help — this help message (run off_util -H help for general help) 🫶
• --version — version information ⭐
• -s — stagger placement of balls between cirles (yes, “cirles” is what it says — iconic typo behavior 😭)
• -x — don't place points at the two poles 🙅‍♀️
• -o <file> — write output to file (default: write to standard output) 💾

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

The full documentation for sph_rings is maintained as a Texinfo manual. If the info and sph_rings programs are properly installed at your site, the command:

info sph_rings

should give you access to the complete manual. 👑
