- Convert an STL file to a GTS file:

`stl2gts < {{path/to/file.stl}} > {{path/to/file.gts}}`

- Convert an STL file to a GTS file and revert face normals:

`stl2gts < {{path/to/file.stl}} --revert > {{path/to/file.gts}}`

- Convert an STL file to a GTS file and do not merge vertices:

`stl2gts < {{path/to/file.stl}} --nomerge > {{path/to/file.gts}}`

- Convert an STL file to a GTS file and display surface statistics:

`stl2gts < {{path/to/file.stl}} --verbose > {{path/to/file.gts}}`

- Display help:

`stl2gts --help`
