k3d(1) General Commands Manual k3d(1) NAME
k3d - 3D modeling and animation system SYNOPSIS
k3d [options] DESCRIPTION
K-3D is a free (as in freedom) 3D modeling, animation, and rendering system for GNU/Linux and Win32. K-3D features a robust, object-ori- ented plugin architecture and is capable of producing motion-picture-quality output when paired with a RenderMan Interface compliant render engine such as Aqsis. Please visit http://www.k-3d.org for more information. OPTIONS
--add-path [path] Prepends a filesystem path to the PATH environment variable. --color Color-codes log messages based on their priority. Requires an ANSI color-capable terminal. --disable-gl-extension [extension] Disables the given OpenGL extension. --exit Exits the program (useful after running scripts in batch mode). -h, --help Prints this help information and exits. --log-level [level] Specifies the minimum message priority to log (valid values are "warning", "information", or "debug"). --options [path] Overrides the filepath for storing user options (this overrides both defaults and the K3D_OPTIONS_PATH environment variable, below). --plugins [path] Overrides the path(s) for loading plugin libraries (this overrides both defaults and the K3D_PLUGIN_PATHS environment variable, below). Multiple colon-delimited paths are allowed. Use "&" as a synonym for the default paths. --script [file] Play the given script after startup (use - for stdin). --shadercache [path] Overrides the path where compiled shaders will be cached (this overrides both defaults and the K3D_SHADER_CACHE_PATH environment variable, below). --share [path] Overrides the path for loading shared data files (this overrides both defaults and the K3D_SHARE_PATH environment variable, below). --show-process Prints the process name next to log messages. --show-timestamps Prints timestamps next to log messages. --syslog Logs messages to syslog. -u, --ui [ui path] Specifies the path to a user interface plugin (this overrides both the default and the K3D_USER_INTERFACE_PATH environment variable, below). As a special-case the string "none" can be used as a synonym for the Null (no gui) User Interface. -H, --user-interface-help Prints a user-interface specific help message and exits. --version Prints program version information and exits. USER INTERFACE OPTIONS
--batch Operate in batch (no user intervention) mode. -n, --new Creates a new document after startup. --no-custom-layouts Disable custom user interface layouts (useful when playing-back recorded tutorials, which rely on the default layout). --no-splash Disables the startup splash screen. -o, --open [file] Opens the given file after startup. --show-tutorials Opens the tutorials menu immediately following startup. --tutorials [path] Overrides the path for loading interactive tutorials (this overrides both defaults and the K3D_TUTORIALS_PATH environment variable, below). ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
K3D_EXTRA_OPTIONS Provides additional options that are appended to the command-line at startup. Note that unlike other K-3D environment variables, options specified via K3D_EXTRA_OPTIONS will override options specified on the command line. K3D_OPTIONS_PATH Overrides the path for storing user options (this overrides the default, but can be overridden by the --options option, above). K3D_PLUGIN_PATHS Overrides the path(s) for loading plugin libraries (this overrides the default, but can be overridden by the --plugins option, above). Multiple colon-delimited paths are allowed. Use "&" as a synonym for the default paths. K3D_SHADER_CACHE_PATH Overrides the path where compiled shaders are cached (this overrides the default, but can be overridden by the --shadercache option, above). K3D_SHARE_PATH Overrides the path for loading shared data files (this overrides the default, but can be overridden by the --share option, above). K3D_USER_INTERFACE_PATH Overrides the path to the user interface plugin (this overrides the default, but can be overridden by the --ui option, above). AUTHORS
