Just in time for the Simpson's Movie

After weeks of working mostly on the UI, I've spent three or four days reworking the calculation and display code. One result of that effort is support for parametric surfaces (x,y,z) = f(u,v).



Other things:
  • Now using GL display lists for faster rendering.
  • Support for wireframe, solid, and wireframe superimposed on solid rendering modes.
  • Smaller and more readable code base, since all surface and curve modes are now defined in terms of base parametric modes.
  • Preliminary support for custom coloring.
The new code is not hooked up to the Plot interface yet, so that is my goal for today. Hopefully you will see this in SVN by the end of the weekend, possibly tonight.
