That's great, I am looking forward to trying it once its on openSUSE Build 
Service.

How difficult would it be to put these pages on HyperDoc? (personally I like 
the idea of HyperDoc pages as HTML as it might be able to be rendered by more 
standard library code but I suspect i'm in the minority on that issue so 
perhaps I shouldn't try to reopen that debate?).

Also, what do you think it would take to make this graphics framework the 
default graphics framework? I guess it would need the ability to render itself 
directly from openaxiom? Again I would have thought that some form of standard 
OpenGL library code should be available?

It just seemed to me that the combination of:
* The new C++ code,
* some standard HTML code library,
* new graphics framework + standard OpenGL library code,
would help remove a lot of older messy code and make openaxiom more 
streamlined and easier to add new features. However I don't claim to 
understand all the issues here and I'm sure it would be a lot harder than 
that.

Anyway, thanks again for putting this in openaxiom.
