The cylinder statement creates a finite length cylinder with parallel end caps The syntax is:
CYLINDER:
cylinder
{
<Base_Point>, <Cap_Point>, Radius
[ open ][OBJECT_MODIFIERS...]
}
Where <Base_Point> and <Cap_Point> are vectors defining
the x, y, z coordinates of the cylinder's base and cap and Radius is a float value for the
radius.
Normally the ends of a cylinder are closed by flat discs that are parallel to each other and perpendicular to the
length of the cylinder. Adding the optional keyword open after the radius will remove the end caps and
results in a hollow tube.
