Description:
     This tool named "vrml12prim" is a data converter 
     from VRML 1.0 format into  g4.prim format for Fukui Renderer DAWN.

(1) How to compile:

   Go to ./src, select a makefile of your platform, edit if necessary,
   and then invoke "make":

   % cd ./src
   % make -f Makefile.PLATFORM

   The default makefile, i.e. "Makefile" is the copy of Makefile.GNU_g++.

(2) How to install

   % make install -f Makefile.PLATFORM

   Then an executable file "vrml12prim" is copied to the directory 
   specified by the variable "INSTALL_DIR" in Makefile.PLATFORM.

(3) Usage

     vrm12prim  [option(s)] vrml_1_file g4_prim_file

    Options:
      -b   Add visible bounding box.
      -d   Display debugging Infomation.
      -h   Help.
      -n   Set a Ndiv value. (ex. -n10 --> Ndiv = 10)
      -u   Data not supported in g4.prim-format are output as
           comment lines.

    Example:

     vrml12prim -b -n50 box.wrl box.prim

(4) How to test vrml12prim

   % cd ../SAMPLE_DATA/VRML1_DATA
   % ../../vrm12prim src_file.wrl  dest_file.prim

   In order to visualize the output g4.prim file, i.e., 
   "dest_file.prim" above,  you need Fukui Renderer DAWN.

   ftp://rhodes.fuis.fukui-u.ac.jp/pub/graphics/fukui_graphics_system
        /dawn_XXX.tar.gz    

   where XXX is a version number.

(6) Sample outputs

   They are placed at the directory ./SAMPLE_DATA/G4PRIM_DATA

(7) Documents for g4.prim format

   See G4PRIM_FORMAT_24.tex included in the DAWN package.

(8) This tool "vrml12prim" is using qvlib:

   http://www.ii.uib.no/~torgeir/qvik/index.html

   We want to admire this very useful library.
   (We have modified the source of qvlib slightly
    for our convenience.)
