evolvotron_mutate - Render an evolvotron function tree to an image. evolvotron_mutate < function_in.xml > function_out.xml evolvotron_mutate -g > function_out.xml evolvotron_mutate either mutates an existing image function read from standard input, or (with the -g option) creates a new image function. In either case the output image function is written to standard output. The mutation parameters and function weightings are the same as used by evolvotron in its default reset state. See the evolvotron user manual (accessible from the evolvotron application's Help menu) for more information on image functions.

0.5i -g, --genesis Specifies that no function should be read from standard input. The output function is created at random.

0.5i -h, --help Display information on command line arguments and exit.

0.5i -l, --linear Created functions (if they are rendered as animations) will sweep z linearly (rather than sinusoidally).

0.5i -p, --spheremap Created functions will be tagged as spheremaps.

0.5i -v, --verbose Enables some additional logging to standard error.
