Hi Charles, and VMD-L,

How does this look for an easy (but also limited functionality)
stereo rendering script:

display stereo Left
render PostScript left.ps
display stereo Right
render PostScript right.ps
display stereo off

Of course, this will leave you with two separate PostScript files, one
for each eye, but this would seem to be good for most purposes...
You can change the renderer to be "snapshot" or one of the ray tracers,
and this should also work fine.

Let me know if you had something different in mind...
