vdltodmx(1)

NAME

   vdltodmx - dmx configuration file parser and printer

SYNOPSIS

   vdltodmx infile outfile

DESCRIPTION

   vdltodmx  reads  the  input  file, which should be in VDL configuration
   file format.  After a successful parse, a file  in  Xdmx  configuration
   file format is written to the output file.

   The  VDL  file  format  is  used  with  xmovie, which is available from
   http://www.llnl.gov/icc/lc/img/xmovie/xmovie.html

EXAMPLE

   Given the following VDL-format file:
          0
          2
          #
          #
          2560 2048 Left two-thirds [restrict=*:2]
          2
          :2.1 1280 2048   0    0 0 0
          :2.2 1280 2048   1280 0 0 0
          4
          1280 1024 0      0
          1280 1024 0      1024
          1280 1024 1280   0
          1280 1024 1280   1024
          #
          2560 2048 Right two-thirds [restrict=*:2]
          2
          :2.2 1280 2048   0   0 0 0
          :2.3 1280 2048   1280 0 0 0
          4
          1280 1024 1280    0
          1280 1024 1280    1024
          1280 1024 2560 0
          1280 1024 2560 1024
   the following DMX-format file will be produced:
          #
          #
          virtual "Left two-thirds" 2560x2048 {
              display :2.1 1280x2048;
              display :2.2 1280x2048 @1280x0;
          }
          #
          virtual "Right two-thirds" 2560x2048 {
              display :2.2 1280x2048;
              display :2.3 1280x2048 @1280x0;
          }

BUGS

   If the VDL file is  not  in  the  expected  format,  the  program  will
   probably dump core.
