Thats good to hear. I fixed the Quaternions many months ago and made a small
demo of a cube that spun. The spinning could toggle between eular angles and
quaternions. It wasn't using any other part of PLib except the math library
so I never sent it in. But it's good to hear someone else has finally used
the Quaternion code for *something*. I'd really like to know why more people
aren't using quaternions for camera control.
