DESCRIPTION
rubikrotation is a Perl script for processing Rubik cube rotations. It is part of the LaTeX rubikrotation package, and is typically CALLed by rubikrotation.sty. See the package manual for full details (type at the commandline: texdoc rubikrotation). Both the rubikrotation and rubikcube packages are part of the LaTeX Rubik `bundle'. The latest version can be downloaded from

CTAN: mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/rubik/

rubikrotation reads Rubik configuration data and instructions from an input file, and writes the new configuration data to an output file. The input and output filenames can be specified as command-line arguments (see: command-line use).

COMMAND-LINE USE
rubikrotation [-h|--help|-v|--version] [-o <outfile>] -i <infile> -h displays the help info and exits. -i defines the input filename. The default input filename set by the rubikrotation package is rubikstate.dat, and this is generated by the LaTeX RubikRotation{} command (see the rubikrotation LaTeX package manual rubikrotation.pdf). Note that the rubikrotation perl script expects the input file to have a certain structure, as described in rubikrotation.pdf and rubikrotationPL.pdf). -o defines the output filename. If no output filename is given then the default filename rubikOUT.txt is used.
