As suggested by Sean to concentrate on making "Online Geometry Viewer"
instead of geometry editor, I started moving in this direction.

I started with making a simple BRL-CAD database file having a object
(sphere) and converted it to text format using g2asc. I found all
input information, category of entity and additional information in
the form of A (x1, y1, z1), B(x2, y2, z2) and C(x3, y3, z3). Then used
"l" (small L) command in command window, and concluded that these may
be the vectors since magnitude value is written alongside.

Later, above was confirmed after checking in Vol 2 Introduction to MGED.

Then added other objects such as rcc and rpp to examine how they are
represented in database.

This text format of geometry file will help to perform operations of
reading / parsing and obtaining the required information to fed to
webGL functions.

Also I was working on patch this time more seriously and I got the
logic of f_journal(). But I didn't found any code block within that
function that write data in journal file. Where the f_journal() is
called?
