It's a lot like an 8-track tape -- remember those? Such a pain
remembering which way the darn thing was going. With
anim mode once
frame playRev
can get stuck, I think.
In reality,
frame xxxxx
model xxxxx
anim frame xxxxx
all do precisely the same thing because they use exactly the same code.
Oh, and now there is
trajectory xxxxx
which DOES do something else. (since only one set of coordinates is
present at any time, you cannot display two models ever with this
command. It's designed for "streaming" huge sets of coordinates through
some sort of animation sequence.)
You know, with the new buttons and such, we should be able to write a
little on-screen in-the-window frame scroller.
