[ REQ 5308]: Re: Geomview: An Interactive 3D Geometry Viewer

["Tim Rowley" <trowley>]

Hello Tim!

In article <D5HKwp.6G5 at news.cis.umn.edu> you write:

I cannot believe this.  Most serious Unix users in the academic
environment perfer *bsd over Linux, due to Linux's many shortcomings,
especially on networked machines.

I would like a Geomview version for NetBSD.  But then, we have all
your stuff on our SGIs anyway :-)
