[x3d-public] X3D minutes 7 May 2021: X3D-Edit on Linux?

[John Carlson]

Xj3D integration looks okay.  Many browser icons bring up Kate on 
Linux:  X3DOM, X_ITE, html (Is there some place to override Kate?).   
JSON button doesn't bring up Kate, instead it launches view3dscene.

In X3D-Edit Preferences (set up browsers), View3DScene row attempts to 
launch VivatyPlayer, if set to /usr/bin/view3dscene, cannot launch 
(greyed out), switches text to SwirlX3DPlayer.

FreeWRL integration works.
