<refsection xml:id="description"><title>DESCRIPTION</title>

<para>Executes the BRL-CAD <emphasis>rtedge</emphasis> program with the default options of
"-s50 -M." If perspective is turned on, then the <emphasis>-p</emphasis> option will be
included with the value of the perspective angle. The current database name is added to the
end of the <command>rtedge</command> command line along the list of currently displayed objects. The
<emphasis>rtedge</emphasis> program is written such that options may be repeated, and the
last occurrence of an option will override any earlier occurrences. This allows the user
to specify other <emphasis>size (-s)</emphasis> options. The
<emphasis>-M</emphasis> option tells <emphasis>rtedge</emphasis> to read the viewing parameters
from standard input. See the <emphasis>man1</emphasis> page on <emphasis>rtedge</emphasis>
for details.
