A Scriptable 3D Graphics modeler and renderer. By defining points and shapes in a 3-dimensional coordinate system, one can create a scene very quickly and easily a simple scripting language. The scene can then be animated and be added special effects.   Does anyone have some champagne? We're celebrating, as finally the first version of the GUI is finished. We're just cleaning up some of the GLADE callbacks, and then it'll soon be posted in the SVN Repo.
