2-----------
3
4LSystem3d is a experimental Lindenmayer System generator with 3d capabilities,
5whose main goal is to generate all kinds of plants or whatever fractal
90660240 6L-system structures the user desires. For now, LSystem3D is highly under
9469555e 7development and is considered alpha, that is, lots of things are missing and
8it will probably not work 100% accurate.
