What's the difference between flow and param?

I'd like to use this for fully automatic "3D mesh in --> UV map out". Thank you!

Apologies for the confusion,

flow was referring to the 3D part of the algorithm, (there was a bunny flowing) wasn't properly named.

If your mesh is disk-like, then
./scaf_param_bin -m ../camel_b.obj -g 0 should be enough. And the result would be saved at ../camel_b.obj_uv.obj as a mesh.

Cool! Thanks for the explanation. Do I understand correctly that the mesh must already be cut with seams? If so, do you recommend a particular software for that?

Depending on your needs, I would either go for cut_to_disk in libigl, or http://www.cs.ubc.ca/labs/imager/tr/2018/OptCuts/ where they have SCAF integrated when toggle bijectivity on.
