    Moving around in a CAD model. —Don Heyse
   This is something I've wanted to do for a while and finally got around to it again. The current version of ldglite can be used as a cheesy scene modeler for making nice POV shots by calculating the camera stuff for l3p. The trouble is getting the (...)
