    Well, actually I had a close look at the 3D rendering code of
Gnuplot, and there is a certain amount of reorganising to be done,
especially moving the projection to separate function. I was planning to
try to do this but I am currently overwelmed with work, and it is likely
to go on. As far as rendering engines, I was thinking of povray and
opengl as rendering terminals.
