[x3d-public] Generating 3D complex narrative; statistics on X3D or XML files

[John Carlson]

I guess i feel if I understood patterns well enough I would be able to
implement these things easily.   Thus I have been studying things like
that.   But I barely have an understanding for a quantum layout or chaotic
grammar.
