Manip allows specially prepared VRML 1.0 files to be viewed with
interactive toggling of parts between wireframe and solid, as well
as toggling between wireframe toggling and link following. One can
think of two modes for the file itself and two modes for the file
itself and two modes for each part (the parts are defined by the
special preparation required): the file mode can be either
MANIPULATION or NAVIGATION, and the part modes can be either SOLID or
WIREFRAME. The default file mode is MANIPULATION and the default part
mode is SOLID. Twosections follow on the use of this CGI VRML filter,
one on the preparation of the VRML file and the second on the
interactive use of the filter. Manip has only been compiled and
tested on UNIX boxes.
