- I found the specs for Autocad version 10 on zamenhof.cs.rice.edu, but I
- need the newest documentation to support files generated by 3-d studio. I
- would very much appreciate it if someone could mail these to me or point
- me in the right direction. Also - I have nearly completed a 3-d modeling
- package for MS-Windows, and I want to support reading and writing dxf
- files. Writing is no problem, but I would like to know what sort of
- entities most people use when designing solid 3-d models? My modeler only
- uses triangular faces also, so I need to keep that in mind. 3DFACEs are
- not a problem, but I have recently found out about a polygon mesh --
- that's what I'm worried about. Anyway, I'd sure appreciate any help. Thanks.
