Not personally, but it shouldn't be difficult. If I remember correctly,
that information is in the header record right at the beginning of the
file. Most likely, you can just look at a fixed offset into the file
and read the values directly.

Multigen-Paradigm has the specs for most versions of OpenFlight on their
web site. You should find all you need there.

If, on the other hand, you're asking how to do it via Performer's
OpenFlight loader, I'm not sure that you can :-)
