NAME

vrweb - VRML browser and editor

SYNOPSIS

vrweb [Options] [File]

DESCRIPTION

VRweb is a VRML 1 browser that you can use to browse a Virtual Reality World (wrl).

OPTIONS

-h, -help
gives a short description of possible command line arguments.
-verbose
turns on verbose output (incl. IPC communication); use it to locate VRweb crashes (if they should ever happen...) and include the output in the bug report
-lang[uage] lang
sets the language of the user interface to one of [english|german|french|italian|spanish|korean|japanese|styrian]. There are currently no plans for supporting other languages. Please, send bug reports or information requests in English or German only.
-URL url
base URL for relative references (typically set via -URL %u in ~/.mailcap).
-remote file
open file in a running VRweb instance or create a new VRweb window if none found. It is not possible to redirect stdinput to a remote instance. However the optional file argument after all options allows this using a -.
-getRemoteID
determines the X11 window ID of a running VRweb instance or 0x0 if none found. Exits afterwards.
-remoteViewpoint
make a running VRweb instance jump to a named viewpoint, defined with argument -URL _baseurl_#camera, and exit.
-helpDir dir
directory or URL where to find on-line help files. Defaults to ~/.vrweb/help.
-fontDir dir
directory of VRweb font files. Defaults to ~/.vrweb/fonts.
-bg3d color
set scene background color. Color specified as for -bg.
-draw[mode]
select the initial drawing mode to be one of [wireframe|hiddenline|flat|smooth|texturing]
-intdraw[mode]
selects the interactive drawing mode to be one of the list above or same to use the same mode during navigation too.
-speed
sets an (overall) speed factor for navigation
-alphaplanes
inquire visual with alpha-bitplanes. Their use in VRweb is limited to the `quality polygon antialiasing' option (OpenGL version). They are not needed for transparency.
-mesabackbuf
selects the backbuffer for Mesa to be one of [pixmap|image|auto]. Pixmap transfers each drawing command immediately to the XServer. Image causes all drawings to be made into an XImage, which is transfered to the XServer when complete; shared memory usage (only available when displayed locally) makes this transfer fast. The default setting auto uses image for shaded views and pixmap for wireframes.
-singlebuf
turns off double buffering for 3D renderings. Usually slower than double buffering. OpenGL however may provide a X-visual with greater depth.
-indirect
render OpenGL through X-server (slower).
-mosaic
use mosaic for anchor requests and on-line help or netscape(1).
-local
force WWWInline and Texture2 to be searched as local files.
