Hi,

        I was just wondering whether there is any way to use pfVec3,
pfMatrix, pfCoord, etc. as arrays of doubles rather than floats. For
most applications, floats are sufficient. But for describing objects in
actual geographic coordinates, you get into some big numbers and rounding
off errors.

Thanks in advance,

        Eran Guendelman.
