Project ideas

I will most likely have adequate time to put together two proposals this year. I'm currently reviewing (in order of interest):

  • STEP Viewer
    • Sounds really interesting, but I'll have to look into whether my skills are up to par.
  • Add -exec option to 'search'
    • This involves obtaining an array of available commands, which is currently impossible (well, doing it the right way). Search isn't the only feature with a use for such a thing.
  • Add a volume, surface area, centroid, and medial axis routine to all primitives
    • from Sean's ideas page
    • probably not that difficult to start implementing
    • would have to learn the math
