I have been playing around with this, and while a few files have
stumbled a bit (I'll send you details separately Carsten), this new tool
succeeded in situations where OpenSCAD just fell over and died.  And it
did it in a reasonable timeline.  And a nice clean UI.  I am a fan.

Thanks so much, Carsten!

The upcoming version of AngelCAD will be able to run OpenSCAD
scripts (with some limitations) if OpenSCAD is installed on the
computer. OpenSCAD is used for parsing the .scad script (without
using the slow CGAL) to .csg format, and then the booleans will be
executed in AngelCADs xcsg.
