Heh, when I finally realized ROTSTEP was more of a runtime command
than an LDLITE parse time command, and looked at the right file,
guess what I found. Yeah, that's right: BUFEXCHG, GHOST, etc. test
code. I think I might even be able to use some of it.
Looks like ROTSTEP is just a mouse spin without the mouse. Of
course now that I looked at the mouse spin code I have to wonder why
ROTSTEP uses three rotations (with the confusing order dependency
problem) instead of one rotation around a 3D vector. Oh well,
I can't tell what ROTSTEP 30 45 90 means based on the specs,
but at least there's sample code telling me how to implement it.
Have fun,
Don
