The tiling works fine, but it is extremely slow compared to
rendering the whole image in one piece.

Those notes are quite easy to understand once you find them.

Considering that we are considering parallel projections, the
concept of an "eye" position is rather strange.

I will do that then. Hopefully it doesn't imply perspective
projection.

Just adding "-Z10000 -cc0,0,5000" to the command line parameters
solved my immediate problems with the z clipping planes.

It just has a habit of drifting into my office.

Wouldn't it be easier to give you an account on the machine, so
you can see for yourself?

Play well,

(...) Well, one could think of the orthographic projection as a perspective projection seen from an infinite distance through a telephoto lense (at least that's the way I think of it). I'm not sure that helps me come up with unified coordinate (...) (25 years ago, 15-Oct-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Wow! Lots of bugs reports all at once. Where do I start? I don't know what's up with xvfb the aspect ratio problem. It seems odd since you can reshape an ldglite window and the aspect ratio is handled correctly. I guess I'll have to get xvfb (...) (25 years ago, 15-Oct-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
