He is sharpening its claws, what else could a pencil sharpener be used for :
I don't sharpen my keyboard ;-)

the magiclight web site is <<((

The download adress, not currently on his page, is:
http://home.bip.net/mikael_aronsson/ml-win.zip
If you have windows NT/98, this should be fine. If you are using 95, or get an error
concerning TrackMouseEvent, download this one, and copy over the original exe:
http://home.bip.net/mikael_aronsson/ml-win-x.zip

Hold in mind that this is alpha .1- there is no save/load, and no export. And the
renderer does everything upside down. However, the modeler already supports NURBS
and booleans...in any case, keep checking the main site,
http://home.bip.net/mikael_aronsson/
because Mikael said he will probably release version 0.2 soon...if you don't want to
keep checking the site, just join the mailing list. No real discussions, just
magiclight news, updates, and feature requests.
