Re: [OctDev] convhulln options.

[Simon C. <si...@li...>]

Greetings,

Having recently worked with convhulln() and qhull I'd definitely like to
have access to qhull's options from within Octave.  The default
option set isn't appropriate for all applications and I've had to
recompile convhulln() so that it calls qhull with the options I need.

I think convhulln() should remain compatible with the Matlab version but
it would be nice to have another function (called qhull?) which allows
one to pass options through to the qhull library.

Another route would be to have some way of setting the options which
convhulln() passes to the qhull library.

Perhaps it would be best to implement both these options.  Then one
could easily modify the behaviour of convhulln() for a particular
program. The function convhulln() could then be implemented as a call to
qhull().
