Hi Folks,

 I've put in some rudimentary Python bindings for the existing VRML parametric 
modeling tools if any Python programmers feel like trying it out.  The source 
(C++) needs to be built of course; requirements are only Boost Python, Python, 
CMake, and the GNU compiler. Source is available via git from SourceForge:

git clone git://git.code.sf.net/p/kicad3dmodels/code


To build just the Python library (which is what I'd recommend since that code 
should be 100% portable), configure with 'cmake' and invoke 'make kc3d'.  
Before configuring with CMake, some parameters in src/py/CMakeLists.txt will 
need to be tweaked for the target system. The src/py directory also has a 
"testpin.py" which should generate a bent elliptical pin with a taper at both 
ends.   There isn't much documentation other than what Doxygen can produce from 
the header files, so tinkering with these tools is only recommended for 
experienced programmers. Any comments are welcome, especially with regards to 
documentation/tutorials which people might find useful.

- Cirilo
