I've made a few changes to the file Steve pointed you to. It can be found
at https://gist.github.com/rohitvarkey/5be4542faff17014afc7.
If you use Escher to run that file, you can load .obj files by just typing
in the filename (provided you ran the Escher server from the directory the
file exists) or the absolute path to the file in the input field. A very
primitive mesh viewer in Julia I guess. :)

Rohit
