Hey, that would be great!  But before you compile it, I think I have a fix
for the empty window problem Todd's been seeing.  If you find the line
with gluPerspective() in main.c, change the -500.0 to 1000.0.  Apparently
it's clipping EVERYTHING with the far clipping plane.  Gotta read up on
that function and see why I thought that had to be negative...  And for that
matter, why does it work on all the versions of Mesa and GL that I tried
beforehand?

  I've tried and it worked after fixing the gluPerspective call, it's
very slowe (LeoCAD renders the WTOWER.DAT file in less than 1 second)
but at least it works. The last 2 parameters to gluPerspective are the
distance from the viewer to the near and far clip planes, so they can
never be negative.

(...) Hmmm, that sounds like a commercial for LeoCAD. ;^) And a target, 1 second eh? Seriously though, It'll never reach those speeds parsing DAT files, but hopefully when I switch to display lists for the redraws... Just for the record, how slow (...) (25 years ago, 2-Feb-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Whoa. That's the same WTOWER.DAT distributed with ldglite. The one that LDLite, on my Pentium 400 with Win98, renders in 5.8 seconds? Amazing. Steve (25 years ago, 2-Feb-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
