+			Milkshape Simple OpenGL Exporter
+			--------------------------------
+
+This exporter outputs simple OpenGL as either C-source or BlitzMax compatible
+source.
+
+To use select 'Simple OpenGL' from the 'Export' menu.  When activated a dialog
+is displayed with the following items:
+
+
+Info
+
+	A text box with some basic info on the model and what will be created.
+
+
+Directory
+
+	The directory that the sources will be generated in.  Use the button
+	with the 3 periods to the left to select the directory.
+
+
+Class/Function name
+
+	The name of the generated function or class.
+
+
+Use Textures
+
+	Outputs the required 2D texture commands.
+
+
+Generate Info
+
+	Defines some macros or constants that define info on the model,
+	such as its size, largest co-ordinates and centre of gravity.
+
+
+Force COG to 0,0,0
+
+	The centre of gravity of the model is defined as the mid-point between
+	the most distance vertices.  If you select this then the co-ordinates
+	are adjusted so that the model is centered on 0,0,0.
+
+
+Generate for BlitzMax
+
+	If selected generates source for use with BlitzMax, otherwise C sources
+	are generated.  See the following sections describing what's generated
+	for each language type.
+
+
+Generate for lit scenes
+
+	If selected then the appropriate Open GL commands are output setting
+	the ambient, diffuse, specular and emissive colours.
+
+	If not selected, then the vertexes are given a simple colour taken
+	from the materials diffuse colour (or white if no material is
+	defined).
+
+
+
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+C Usage
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+To use the C source in your project, assuming you gave the function name as
+Test, simply include Test.c and #include "Test.h" to use the model.  The
+function either has the prototype:
+
+void Test(GLfloat x, GLfloat y, GLfloat z,
+	  GLfloat rot_x, GLfloat rot_y, GLfloat rot_z)
+
+or if 'Use Textures' was selected:
+
+void Test(GLfloat x, GLfloat y, GLfloat z,
+	  GLfloat rot_x, GLfloat rot_y, GLfloat rot_z,
+	  GLint texture_id);
+
+
+Simply call it with a position and rotation (and texture ID if needed) to draw
+the model.  Obviously the function can be called as many times as required
+during scene generation.
+
+Also generated is this function:
+
+int Test2_CreateList(void);
+
+If this is called then a OpenGL display list for the model is created (the
+function returns FALSE if the list couldn't be created).  The Test() function
+will automatically use this list once it's created.
+
+
+If 'Generate Info' was selected, then the following macros are defined:
+
+
+TEST_COG_X
+TEST_COG_Y
+TEST_COG_Z
+
+	Defines the COG of the model (always zeros if 'Force COG ...' was
+	selected).
+
+
+TEST_MIN_X
+TEST_MAX_X
+TEST_MIN_Y
+TEST_MAX_Y
+TEST_MIN_Z
+TEST_MAX_Z
+
+	The maximum and minimum vertex values for each axis.
+
+
+TEST_SIZE_X
+TEST_SIZE_Y
+TEST_SIZE_Z
+
+	The size of the model along each axis.
+
+
+TEST_TEXTURED
+
+	Set to one if 'Use Textures' was selected.  Otherwise zero.
+
+
+TEST_MATERIALS
+
+
+	Set to one if 'Generate for lit scenes' was selected.  Otherwise zero.
+
+
+
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+BlitzMAX Usage
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+To use the source in your project, assuming you gave the function name as
+Test, simply include "Test.bmx" to use the model.  This defines a class called
+Test, which has the following fields:
+
+
+Field	x:Float
+Field	y:Float
+Field	z:Float
+Field	rot_x:Float
+Field	rot_y:Float
+Field	rot_z:Float
+
+	These defines the position and orientation of each instance.
+
+
+Function Create:Test()
+
+	Used to create an instance.
+
+
+Method Render()	*OR*
+Method Render(texture_id:Int)
+
+	Renders the model (with the supplied texture if 'Use Textures' was
+	selected).
+
+
+Function CreateDisplayList:Int()
+
+	Creates a common OpenGL display list used by all instances of the
+	class.  Returns True if the list was created, otherwise False.
+
+	Note that Render() will use the display list automatically if it's
+	been created.
+
+
+If 'Generate Info' was selected, then the following constants are defined:
+
+Const	COG_X:Float
+Const	COG_Y:Float
+Const	COG_Z:Float
+
+	Defines the COG of the model (always zeros if 'Force COG ...' was
+	selected).
+
+
+Const	MIN_X:Float
+Const	MAX_X:Float
+Const	MIN_Y:Float
+Const	MAX_Y:Float
+Const	MIN_Z:Float
+Const	MAX_Z:Float
+
+	The maximum and minimum vertex values for each axis.
+
+
+Const	SIZE_X:Float
+Const	SIZE_Y:Float
+Const	SIZE_Z:Float
+
+	The size of the model along each axis.
+
+
+Const	TEXTURED:Int
+
+	Set to True if 'Use Textures' was selected.  Otherwise False.
+
+
+Const	MATERIALS:Int
+
+
+	Set to True if 'Generate for lit scenes' was selected.  Otherwise False.

+			    Milkshape Group Exploder
+			    ------------------------
+
+This tool simply allows you to explode a group so that all the triangles in
+it are now in a group of their own.
+
+To use select 'Group Exploder' from the 'Tools' menu.  When activated a dialog
+is displayed with the following items:
+
+
+Select Group to explode
+
+	Simply select the group name to explode.
+
+
+Remove original mesh
+
+	If this is selected then the original group is removed.
+
+
+Collate triangles with identical normals
+
+	If this is selected then traingles where the vertex normals all match
+	(ie. they are on the same plane) are grouped together into a group.
+
+	For instance, if exploding a cube then you end up with 6 new groups,
+	each containing two triangles that make up one face of the cube.
+
+
+When OK is selected the group is exploded and new groups created.  These new
+groups will be assigned the same material as the original group.
