[-f <first image>] [-n <number of images>] [-s <step>][-c] [-d] [-h]\n", name);

OPTIONS: Default\n\
-i <input image path> %s\n\
Set image input path.\n\
From this path read images \n\
\"cube/image.%%04d.pgm\"\n\
Setting the VISP_INPUT_IMAGE_PATH environment\n\
variable produces the same behaviour than using\n\
this option.\n\
\n\
-p <personal image path> %s\n\
Specify a personal sequence containing images \n\
to process.\n\
By image sequence, we mean one file per image.\n\
The following image file formats PNM (PGM P5, PPM P6)\n\
are supported. The format is selected by analysing \n\
the filename extension.\n\
Example : \"/Temp/ViSP-images/cube/image.%%04d.pgm\"\n\
%%04d is for the image numbering.\n\
\n\
-f <first image> %u\n\
First image number of the sequence.\n\
\n\
-n <number of images> %u\n\
Number of images to load from the sequence.\n\
\n\
-s <step> %u\n\
Step between two images.\n\
\n\
-c\n\
Disable the mouse click. Useful to automaze the \n\
execution of this program without humain intervention.\n\
\n\
-d \n\
Turn off the display.\n\
\n\
-h\n\
Print the help.\n", ipath.c_str(), ppath.c_str(), first, nimages, step);
