ivcat - concatenates and converts Inventor files

ivcat  reads each file in sequence and then writes each out.  If no input file is given, or a filename of
       "-" is specified, ivcat reads from the standard input file.  The input files must be valid Open  Inventor
       3D Interchange Format files (1.0 or 2.0).

       The following command line options are allowed:

       -b   Write  out the files in binary Inventor format.  The default is to write out the files in Inventor's
            ASCII format.

       -f   Remove all SoFile nodes.  This has the effect of condensing hierarchical files into a single file.

       -h   Print usage message.

       -ofile
            Send the output to the given file, instead of to the standard output.

       -t   Expand SoTexture2 nodes to explictly include the texture data rather than a file name.

       To convert from binary to ASCII Inventor

              ivcat<binaryfile.iv>asciifile.iv

       To convert from ASCII to binary Inventor:

              ivcat-b<asciifile.iv>binaryfile.iv
