New description:
I recently had to draw polytopes for my work.
Many drawing tools already exist. But none of them satisfied me.
So far, I wrote a method that takes a polytope in 3d and a view-angle
(taken from Jmol) and outputs a .tex file containing a TikZ image of the
polytope.
The method should also be able to deal with 2-polytopes.
The result is highly customizable: colors, edge style, vertices style,
etc...
-------------------
First review: I made the suggested corrections. They are present in the
patch trac12083_tikz_polytope_review.patch
Test passed on version 4.7.2
