.SH "NAME"
qorot \- Rotates an object through the specified \fIangle\fR (in degrees)\&.
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.HP \w'\fBqorot\fR\ 'u
\fBqorot\fR {\fIx\ y\ z\ dx\ dy\ dz\ angle\fR}
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
Rotates an object through the specified
\fIangle\fR
(in degrees)\&. This command requires that MGED already be in
\fImatrix edit\fR
mode\&. The edited object is rotated about the axis defined by the start point (\fIx y z\fR) and the direction vector (\fIdx dy dz\fR)\&.
.SH "EXAMPLES"
.PP
The example shows the use of the
\fBqorot\fR
command to rotate a currently edited object through a specified angle and starting point and in a particular direction\&.
