openscad

OPENSCAD(1)						      General Commands Manual						       OPENSCAD(1)

NAME

       openscad - script file based graphical CAD environment

SYNOPSIS

       openscad [options] [file]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the openscad command.

       openscad is a software for creating solid 3D CAD objects. It focuses on CAD aspects rather than artistic ones.

       OpenSCAD  will  start as a graphical program unless export options are given (see below). For the usage of the GUI and a description of the
       OpenSCAD language see the OpenSCAD user manual at http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/OpenSCAD_User_Manual.

OPTIONS

       -o outputfile
	      Export the given file to outputfile in STL, OFF, DXF or CSG format, depending on file extension of outputfile (which has to be lower
	      case).  If this option is given, the GUI will not be started.

       -d file.deps
	      If the -d option is given, all files accessed while exporting are written to the given deps file in the syntax of a Makefile.

       -m make_command
	      If a nonexisting file is accessed during OpenSCAD's operation, it will try to invoke make_command missing_file to create the missing
	      file, and then read it again.

       -D var=val
	      This option can be used to assign constant values to OpenSCAD variables. The variable's value is an expression, so if this mechanism
	      is  used	to  assign strings, care has to be taken that the shell does not consume quotation marks.  More than one -D options can be
	      given.

       -v, --version
	      Show version of program.
