The best thing to do would be to track down the source for the VRML 1.0
parser we gave away a few years back in order to help people write
vrml applications. Also, I should probably check to see how many nodes are
actually supported by our loader...
As for Apprentice and friends, I've not looked at these things in years
but never found them to be of much use; I don't know how well the file
loading stuff works.
A+,
Alex.
