Usages

  1. opsave [-q] [-v] [-f start end [-i inc]] operator filename

opsave currently supports CHOP, COP and SOP data.

The -f parameter does the equivalent of the following code:

for i = start to end step inc fcur $i opsave operator filename end
This is, it saves the operator data using the same filename for each frame. Unless you have an embedded variable such as $F or similar in the filename (using “$F”), you probably don’t want this option. CHOPs, for example, save their entire data and usually don’t require the -f parameter.

Options

-q

(Quiet) Do not print any messages, including warnings and errors.

-v

(Verbose) Print more detailed messages.

-f start end

Save output data for a frame range. Use the -i option to specify the increment

-i increment

The increment between frames to save. For example, 2 saves every other frame, 3 saves every third frame, etc.

Examples

opsave -f 1 10 -i 2 /obj/geo1/twist1 twist1\$F.obj 

opsave /ch/ch1/wave1 wave.bclip

opsave /ch/audio/filter1 test.aiff
