[x3d-public] x3d.py package: Some feedback and suggestion for improvement; tuples and lists; updated x3d.py

Sat Mar 5 22:16:49 PST 2022

I tried adding necessary files to my virtual environment without luck.
Here also is my system installed x3d:

john at DESKTOP-8OPL3IE MINGW64
/c/Python310/Lib/site-packages/x3d-4.0.60.dist-info
$ ls
INSTALLER  LICENSE  license.html  license.txt  METADATA  RECORD  REQUESTED
 top_level.txt  WHEEL

Again, no code???  Good luck!  Don't forget to deploy code to package
distribution.  Maybe there's something with your network which is
preventing files from upload?  Are you uploading the files from a different
machine or network?
