Re: import formats

Hi,
I've recently been wrestling with something similar and I've written a
simple mesh exporter script for blender and equally simple C++/OpenGL
importer to display it. The format is very much inspired by .obj.

I can post up both script and source, if you think this might help
(though I'm not sure if its the done thing to send these files to the
list proper?)

Cheers,
Andrew
