I was trying to get more on this piece of software, but did not come any further than one article in the Communications of the ACM. And, mr. Deering seems not want to be found, because searches on the Net did not really get me further... Anyone knows more on Holosketch? -Ernst -- ......... Dipl.-Drs.
