PP-FB

## Name

pp-fb — display a GIFT pretty-picture file on a frame buffer

## Synopsis

`pp-fb` [-F `framebuffer`] [-W `out_width`] [-N `out_height`] `file.pp`

## DESCRIPTION

pp-fb reads file.pp, determines the size, and displays a color shaded image represented therein on a frame buffer. The .pp files are the output of the pretty-picture option of the gift(1V) ray-tracing program. The options are standard brlcad(1) options specifying framebuffer, output width, and output height. Some information pertaining to the color assignment of region identification numbers and the background color is prompted for on the standard input. The environment variable `FB_FILE` is used to select the display device (see brlcad(1)). If this variable is not set, the default device for your system will be used. Commands for manipulating the display are documented on-line. The file format is not documented anywhere.
