Introduced first SVN version of Present3D.

Line 
1 Welcome to the Present3D project, version 1.3.
2
3 Present3D is a full 3D, stereo capable, cross platform, presentation tool
4 based on the OpenSceneGraph.  Present3D is open source and published under
5 the GNU General Public License v2.0.

7 To build under Linux and OSX, install the main dependencies:
8
9    OpenSceneGraph and its main depdencies OpenThreads
10    SDL (for joystick support)
11    Under Linux install xine-lib
12    LibXML2 (for parsing the xml based presentation file format)
13
14 Then build and install Present3D by typing:
15
16    ./configure
17    make
18    sudo make install
19  
20 A Windows port of Present3D has not been made yet, but should be straight forward using
21 Cmake.  For movie support under Linux xinelib must be used, while under OSX and
22 Windows QuickTime must be used, for either you'll need to compile the OSG with the
23 respective support built, and Present3D will automatically pick up via the OSG's plugin
24 mechanism.
