It is by no means guaranteed that the algorithms in this program are free form errors in implementation, or follow conventions for any specific user-application. .SH OPTIONS This program has no command line options, other than a sequence of data or XML files to open, the XML files being containing a previous program state (this may be generated from within the program's graphical interface). Currently the program can read "POS" (position) formatted files, which are simply uncompressed sequences of 4-byte floats (IEEE 597) in (x,y,z,value) form. All other work is done through the graphical interface. .PP As a further note, the XML file format has not been stabilised for the 0.0.x series; and may change between revisions .SH AUTHOR 3Depict was written by D. Haley in 2012 .SH HOMEPAGE 3Depict Project Home : http://threedepict.sourceforge.net .PP This manual page was written by D Haley , for the Debian project (and may be used by others).
