Hullo,

I'm working on a lightwave/modo (.lwo) geometry importer, and I'm a bit unsure of how the GEOio mechanism works.

- Should the importer write to stdout, or should it write to stdout.bgeo? The text says stdout, but why then are the converters passed “stdout.bgeo” as a second argument?

- Can the importer write .geo or does it have to be .bgeo? Again the text says “.geo/.bgeo” but I'd like to be sure.

My commandline converter creates valid .geo, but I can't get it to work through GEOio - trying to narrow down the possible problems here

Now of course I get it to work just after posting..

For posterity, I write .geo to stdout.

Next, making the importer robust…
