==== Description: ====
Tovero is 3D solid modeling system.  A Tovero model consists of a scene graph
containing objects represented with constructive solid geometry (CSG).  Users
can create Tovero models either dynamically with a scripting language
(currently Ruby) or statically using C++.  The user runs the program or script
which traverses the scene graph to create a binary model (currently a BRL-CAD
".g" database).  The user may then view, modify, analyze, translate, or render
the model with BRL-CAD's tool set.

Tovero is not in general intended to be an interactive system, although it
could be connected to a GUI.

The system is supplied as three libraries: general support, math (including 3D
geometry), and graphics (including material attributes).  These libraries can
be linked with existing code to incorporate the functionality of Tovero.  Each
of these has a Ruby interface library generated with  SWIG.

Tovero implements units (e.g. meters), shape validation, tolerancing, and
systematic error handling.  Since the project uses SWIG, which supports a
number of languages, future releases may support languages other than Ruby
(such as Scheme/Lisp or Python).
