GETINFO(1) General Commands Manual GETINFO(1)NAMEgetinfo - get header information from a RADIANCE fileSYNOPSISgetinfo [ -d ][ file .. ] getinfo -DESCRIPTIONGetinfo reads the header of each RADIANCE file and writes it to the standard output. Octree and picture files are in a binary format, which makes it difficult to determine their content. Therefore, a few lines of text are placed at the beginning of each file by the RADI- ANCE program that creates it. The end of the header information and the start of the data is indicated by an empty line. The -d option can be used to print the dimensions of an octree or picture file instead. For an octree, getinfo -d prints the bounding cube (xmin ymin zmin size). For a picture, getinfo -d prints the y and x resolution (-Y yres +X xres). If no file is given, the standard input is read. The second form of getinfo with a hyphen simply removes the header and copies the body of the file from the standard input to the standard output.EXAMPLETo print the header information from scene1.oct and scene2.hdr: getinfo scene1.oct scene2.hdrAUTHORGreg WardSEE ALSOoconv(1), pfilt(1), rhinfo(1), rpict(1), rvu(1)RADIANCE1/15/99 GETINFO(1)
