DESCRIPTION

14       fgviewer  is a viewer application that allows you to examine FlightGear
15       scenery and objects without starting fgfs(1).
16

OPTIONS

18       --fg-root rootdir
19              Set the FlightGear data root directory ($FG_ROOT) to rootdir. If
20              this  option is not set, fgviewer uses the path specified in the
21              FG_ROOT environment variable or,  absent  that,  the  FlightGear
22              data directory chosen at the time the program was compiled.
23
24       --fg-scenery scenerydir
25              Set  the  FlightGear scenery directory ($FG_SCENERY) to scenery‐
26              dir.  If this option is not set, fgviewer uses the  path  speci‐
27              fied in the FG_SCENERY environment variable or, absent that, the
28              Scenery subdirectory inside $FG_ROOT.
29
30       --config configfile
31              Read configuration directives from configfile.
32
33       --prop property value
34              Set the property named property to value.
35
36       --renderer rend
37              Use the renderer named rend to render the scenery.  This  option
38              is currently not supported.
39
40       --hla  Enable HLA federation.
41
42       --federation fed
43              Enable a custom federation named fed.
44

EXIT STATUS

46       fgviewer  exits  with EXIT_SUCCESS on success, with EXIT_FAILURE if the
47       syntax of the command-line arguments is wrong or an error occurs.
48

ENVIRONMENT

50       FG_ROOT
51           If FG_ROOT is set and --fg-root is not set, it specifies  the  root
52           data directory to use.
53
54       FG_SCENERY
55           If  FG_SCENERY is set and --fg-scenery is not set, it specifies the
56           scenery directory to use.
