12 fp2anim converts a footprint to a script that can be run through anima‐
13 tor(1). It's main use is to have a automated, light-weight footprint
14 preview generator on hosts where installing pcb-rnd would be too expen‐
15 sive (e.g. on web servers).

17 If inputfile is not specified, fp2anim reads its STDIN for the foot‐
18 print.
