GLRex allows the user to write both opengl programs and rib files interactively.
The user can create simple scenes composed of spheres, cubes, cones,
cylinders, and NURB surfaces of revolution and extrusion and either creta BMP
files directly or export the scenes as OpenGL C programs or RenderMan rib files.
