This file contains the Pixar Showplace 2.0 RIB Plug-in Developer's Kit.
You will need Think 5.04 or later for use with this file. This will allow
you to develop RenderMan Interface Bytestream Plug-in Modules for use with
Showplace 2.0 from Pixar. Like Photoshop, Plug-ins offer users the ability to
have additional functionality added to a program by people that like to code!

We believe that this will increase the popularity of Showplace, and bring more
realistic pictures to the industry. America Online users have already downloaded
this kit, and begun development efforts on many types of plug-ins.

The purpose of these plug-ins is to generate geometry in an otherwise non-modeling
type of program. Showplace does not allow you to model in 3D, but rather to import
objects that have been designed in a modeler. Now with the plug-ins you can
make your own geometry.

This kit does ship with Showplace, but if you do not have Showplace 2.0, then
you can use this to develop without it.
