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}}
