OpenVRML is a VRML and X3D browser plug-in and C++ toolkit for incorporating VRML support into applications.

OpenVRML provides VRML97 and Classic VRML X3D parsers, a runtime, and an OpenGL renderer as C++ libraries.

The renderer is fully separate from the runtime library so that users can also provide their own renderer.

What's New in This Release:
· openvrml-gtkplug was changed to expect an initial stream only when passed the --initial-stream argument.
· Some deadlocks in openvrml-gtkplug were fixed, along with a bug that caused openvrml-gtkplug (and thus the Mozilla plug-in) to consume 100% of the CPU.
· The Mozilla plug-in now registers itself as a handler for model/x3d+vrml.
· Problems compiling on Mac OS X PPC and issues compiling with Apple's OpenGL framework were fixed.
