What verbs are better for describing rotation about the standard axes? Rotate is usually understood as spinning about the vertical axis. There are aeronautical terms for the other two, pitch and yaw, and I can't remember which is which, so I'm using (...) (23 years ago, 2-Jul-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Hi, I'm wondering how to treat dithered colors (LDRAW 0x0100 to 0x01ff, see FAQ). Short of implementing a dithered texture--which would preserve that old-timey look--I'm seeking a conversion function. My first guess is that the perceptual equivalent (...)
