I'm learning sced, and I'm looking for a way to enter certain values
numerically instead of with the mouse.  Here's a trivial example:
open a sced session, create a new object that's a cube, and scale the
cube so that it's 0.1 units on a side instead of 1 unit on a side.
When I try doing this with the mouse, I don't get the amount of
precision I'd like.  Also, you've got to get it right the first time
in order to see the actual values.

Yes, I know I can export my CSG objects and modify the file after the
fact with a text editor, but that's pretty darned kludgy.  Is there a
better approach?

Jack.
