Summary: what to do with the work lines


Scott Udell asks about the "work lines" in CAD 3D and how to remove them.

The binary format for CAD 3D, the "3D3D" format files, have 3 bits in them
that signal the lines of each triangular face as being "real" or "work" lines.
For some reason this is lost when using the ascii output format.  If you
don't mind bashing on the binary format you could extract the data sans
work lines.
