+DESCRIPTION
+Task \fIsgidecode\fR is a debugging tool used to decode SGI metacode
+files.  The plotting instructions are decoded and printed in readable
+form on the standard output.  The input metacode can be read from one
+or more files or redirected from the standard input.
+
+Coordinates are printed in NDC units (0-1) by default.  When \fBgkiunits\fR
+= yes, coordinates are printed in gki units (0-32767).  Parameter
+\fBverbose\fR is currently not implemented.
+.ih
+EXAMPLES
+1. Decode the metacode in file "home$vdm.sgi".
