Now Enterprises is pleased to announce the release of VRML/2. VRML/2 is the
first native OS/2 VRML 1.1 browser that uses OpenGL to render high quality 3D
images. VRML stands for Virtual Reality Markup Language and is next step
towards cyberspace.

Some of the features of VRML/2 are:
- Multithreaded.
- Drag and drop colors and font almost anywhere.
- Drag VRML files onto the main viewing area.
- Texture mapping.
- helper friendly for Netscape and others.
- gzip support.
- save snap shots of view (great for backgrounds).

Visit http://www.interlog.com/~lmcrae for details. The archive can be found
both on nmsu.hobbes.edu and ftp.cdrom.com. The file is called vrml2_1.zip and
is currently in incoming.
