##  p = vrml_browse ([s])       - View vrml code s with FreeWRL
##      vrml_browse ("-kill")   - Kill the browser
##
## s : string : VRML code, as returned by the vrml_XYZ functions. 
##              If  s  is not specified, a sombrero is showed
##
## p : int    : pid of the current browser. If freewrl has not been started
##              or has died, a new one is started. p is zero or negative in
##              case of failure to start freewrl.
##
## Some keystrokes for FreeWRL (more in the freewrl manpage) :
##
## 'e'   : Examine : mouse 1 and drag rotates the scene
##                   mouse 3 and drag moves closer/farther          
## 'w'   : Walk    : mouse 1 and drag moves for/backward, turns
##                   mouse 3 and drag translates parallel to the screen
## 's'   : Save a snapshot in files 'octave.snapshot.NNNN.ppm'
## 'q'   : Quit
## 
## WARNING : FreeWRL >0.25 (http://www.crc.ca/FreeWRL/) must be installed.
##
## BUG     : The vrml browser is not killed when octave exits. Sometimes the
##           vrml browser does not get raised or gets raised improperly
##           (shows the contents of the topmost window above it). Use
##           "-kill".
