Actually...

I'm thinking along the lines of generating something I can read
myself.  my machines all parse faster than I do.  An example of the
problem would be my current project...I'm rendering all the parts I've
built for my truck.  The parts that mount to the box have all been
generated through much fiddling.  Now when I look at the code, I spend
a lot of time wading through the various rotations, translations and
additions and subtractions that have been used to place the bits and
pieces where I want them.  I've been cleaning up the individual
objects and it's taking me hours on some parts.  This should be
something that can be automated.

Defective O-O
