In the middle of converting it to be a little more cleaner and use
functions to read in values like your lwofilter.cc, I'm copying and
pasting a lot of the functions readU1, readI4, readString. Makes me
wonder if I should separate that stuff and put it in bufferfilter class
that could be inherited. The inherited class would have m_bufPos and the
functions then are included, you setup m_bufPos correctly and off you
go. Anyway I'll have my own separate ones in md3filter, I don't think it
would be to hard to change it later. What were you planning of doing for
with the COB support?
