Some years ago I was looking for the same thing for the LDraw Tools I had in
mind. As I only did it for personal use any commercial software was out of the
race.
Also the C based languages are not good for me as I did never code in that
language.
So I decided that time to use Visual Basic NET. I also do not like to have all
MS, but 80% of worlds computers run windows. And after I discovered that there
is the MONO project that brings the enviroment of .NET to Linux and MAC I
thought that my decision wasn't that bad for my goals.
I know of a project with a renderer written in .NET that has the same speed than
LDView.
Each new windows version will have the .NET enviroment installed by default. So
if all is ideal you can just copy your exe file from windows computer to Linux
computer and run that.
But due to the fact that MONO is developed by volunteers it has still some bugs.
One of my earlier versions of DATHeader runs on my Ubuntu system quite well.
Also if you have some components (dll) that are written in C for NET you can
just use that. Also the other way (vb dll) can be used in C for NET.
If you have the NET enviroment on your system and a visual studio application,
you are invited to look what my XMPD.dll can already do for you.
