cyl2rect - converts the coordinates of a point, line or triangle cloud from cylindrical to rectangular.
cyl2rect [-l|--line] [-p INT|--precision INT] [-?|-h|--help]
cyl2rect converts the coordinates of a point, line or triangle cloud from cylindrical to rectangular. The origin is (0,0,0) and the axis of the cylinder is 'z' (use 'translate' to change the origin and 'rotate' to change the orientation). The cylindrical coordinates are 'r' (radius), 'a' (azimuth), 'z' (height). Angles are expressed in radian (use 'scale' to change the unit). The program takes its input from the standard input and returns the result to the standard output.
