This program converts a VRML1.0 file to a VRML2.0 file.
Please send e-mail to vs_info@vs.sony.co.jp about any difficulties.

1. Usage

   vrml1to2 infile [outfile] [-r[z][v]] [-space N] [-help]

     infile:   	specifies input filename
     outfile:  	specifies output filename
		If outfile is not specified, the result is outputed to stdout.
     -space N:	specifies TAB indentation(N is the number of space).
     -help:	displays help message.

   additional functions

     1) -r option

      - convert the WRL file in WWWInline recurcively.
      - If the WRL file is gzipped, it will be melted automaticaly and
        converted. The temporary files will be removed.
        The gzip commend is required to use "-r" option.

      - If the directory to make the translated file does not exist,
        It will be created.

      - If the name of the input directory is same to the output directory,
        the name of the output directory will be added "20" strings.

        example) convert with -r option.

            WWWInline { name "b.wrl.gz" } -> Inline { url "b20.wrl" }

            conver with -rz optin.

            WWWInline { name "b.wrl.gz" } -> Inline { url "b20.wrl.gz" }

     2) -z option
        
      - The converted output file will be gzipped.
        This option will work with -r option.

     3) -v option

      - output the message in stderr format.
        This option will work with -r option.

  ex) % vrml1to2 vrml1.wrl vrml2.wrl
