file is about 700K when unzipped and you can fetch it here if you're

The front to back sorting doesn't work quite right, and of course
transparency isn't done yet, so I'm not sure what (if anything) this
is worth right now.  I just thought I'd throw it out there...

(...) Ha, you said it your self; in 3D it is not a question of what you place when but where, in PostScript it is the other way around. I afraid you'll get very Dali/Picasso like postscript-files. You even have to mind the part-dat-files and (...) (23 years ago, 6-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
