I would be nice if common (traditional) X arguments (geometry, fn, ...)
could be handled like this.

But I intended to use the param structure (freewrl_params_t in
libFreeWRL.h) as a central placeholder for all that stuff: windows
dimensions, fullscreen flag, eai flag, ...).

It could be cleaner for the calling program to allocate and use that
structure if libFreeWRL becomes really independent of X/Motif/Aqua/...
and offer a simple API to create a X3D rendering window, isn't it ?

What do you think ?
