ZONO(1)

✨ NAME ✨ — from the ZONO(1) User Commands manual

zono — zonohedra from OFF files. That's the whole name section, bestie.

💅 SYNOPSIS 💅

zono [options] [star_file]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so zono makes a zonohedron, or adds zones to a convex seed polyhedron. The zones are created from a star of vectors. That star can be based on a polyhedron (the input model plus option -m), or initialised (option -P) to make a polar zonohedron. If input_file is not given, the program reads from standard input. main character energy, honestly.

🌸 Options 🌸

• -h,--help — this help message (run off_util -H help for general help).
• --version — version information.
• -m <mthd> — method to create the star from input. It can be:
  • v — centre to vertices are vectors (default)
  • a — all vertex to vertex are vectors
  • i — implicit edges (face sides) are vectors
  • e — explicit edges are vectors
• -c <cent> — centre of points for method v, in the form 'X,Y,Z', or C to use the centroid (default '0,0,0').
• -s — output the star (instead of the zonohedron).
• -S <poly> — seed model to add zones to; it must be convex. No cap, convex is the vibe check here.
• -u — make vectors unit length.
• -C <col> — colour for new zone faces.
• -P <arg> — polar zonohedron from an ordered star. arg can be an offset polygon given as an integer or fraction (e.g. 5, 7/2) or 's' to use star_file. Optionally, follow by a comma and an integer to make a spirallohedron with that spiral width (default:0, a polar zonohedron). Any further comma separated parts are colour maps to colour the faces.
• -T <star> — translation surface made from two ordered stars (argument star and star_file), optionally followed by a comma and two characters (or one to use for both) to indicate if the stars of vectors are open, or close to form a loop:
  • d — detect
  • c — force close
  • o — leave open
• -o <file> — write output to file (default: write to standard output).

📚 SEE ALSO 📚

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

info zono

should give you access to the complete manual. iykyk, the info pages are lowkey iconic.

Cute sign-off: this page is for zono from Antiprism 0.32, with the project link http://www.a..., and it lives under the ZONO(1) manual label. Bye bestie, go make some zones. 💖
