✨ ert — the nged manual, but make it cute ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the BRL-CAD user commands corner — this one is ert, from the nged manual, and it's literally here to raytrace your vibes. 🎀

💖 NAME 💖

ert — evaluate and execute a raytrace. that's the name, that's the assignment, and it ate. 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

ert [rt_options] [--] [objects]

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

the ert command raytraces the current view and shows the results in the current embedded framebuffer. it accepts standard options for the rt command — so yes, all the rt option energy is invited to the party. ✨

💜 OPTIONS 💜

  • rt_options — any valid option for the rt command. use -- to stop option processing if object names begin with a hyphen. no cap, that hyphen situation is real. 🫶
  • -u units — specify the local units. if you don't provide it, the default is "model". she has a default and she's sticking to it. 💖

🌈 EXAMPLES 🌈

⭐ Example 1. Basic usage of the ert command.

mged> ert -s512

this raytraces the current view at a resolution of 512x512 and displays it in the embedded framebuffer. iconic behavior, honestly. 🔥
