I just tried a 3ds file, and it works out
of the box just as you said! BUT: I know
why it didn't work previously. I am mean,
I know, but I copied a 3ds file to
"test.wrl" (at the time the model filename was
hardcoded for quick prototyping...). That
lead to a read error (syntax error in line 1)...
So I guess the file extension is taken as a hint.
You could improve intelligence here if you would
like to, but rarely somebody renames a 3ds file
to a wrl (except me). This looks like windows
intelligence level to me :-)

I'll check!
Thank you,
