# xracer-mktube(1)

XRacer tubular outline generator

## NAME

xracer-mktube — XRacer tubular outline generator

## SYNOPSIS

**xracer-mktube** **--steps** *STEPS \[***--outputc** *OUTPUTFILE\]  \[***--outputtube** *TUBEOUTPUTFILE\]  \[***--verbose***\]  \[INPUTFILE*\]

## DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the  **xracer-mktube** command.

This manual page was written for the **Debian** distribution  because the original program does not have a manual page.

**xracer-mktube** is a perl script that  takes a Blender  VideoScape file INPUTFILE which is a basic tubular outline of the track.  The script optionally generates a C source file  OUTPUTFILE that contains code suitable to be used as a track in the  game XRacer, and also as an intermediate TUBEOUTPUTFILE (.tube) file which  is used by the other track processing scripts.

## OPTIONS

- **--steps** *STEPS*

- **--outputc** *OUTPUTFILE*

- **--verbose**
