Check out pfdStoreFile_dwb which basically writes out the Performer scene graph
as a Designer's WorkBench file format from Coryphaeus Software.

The source code for this is in

/usr/share/Performer/src/lib/libpfdb/libpfdwb/pfstoredwb.c

If you want to convert any performer loadable model to DWB, just run perfly as:

% perfly <someformat.ext> -w out.dwb

and that should get you the DWB file.

Hope that helps,

K.
