Know of any others? Well, this *may* help. There is a book out there by Bruce Artwick, who developed the famous SubLogic "Flight Simulator" including the original graphics routines. Unfortunately, I do not know the name of the book or the publisher, as it was one of those books that I was going to buy, but did not have the money to spend or the time to invest reading it (they are sooo many good books out there to read! ;-) I would say that this is a good book to read. Does anyone else have a full reference? If nothing else, you could probably look in the "Books in Print" catalog under the author's name, or ask the ordering department of a large bookstore to help. Good luck! .oO Chris Oo. -- Christopher Lishka ...!{rutgers|ucbvax|...}!uwvax!uwslh!lishka Wisconsin State Lab of Hygiene lishka%uwslh.uucp@cs.wisc.edu Immunology Section (608)262-1617 lishka@uwslh.uucp "I'm not aware of too many things...
