Default AC3D 6.0.23 now available

This release fixes a few minor problems, adds better support for Mac users, and adds the Greeble (Tools->Greeble). Please read through the changes below.

Changes since AC3D 6.0:

ADDED - Greeble to main dist.
FIXED - Object->Merge - the first object selected is the one that collects all the merged geometry.
CHANGED - default texture mapping on sphere - mapping at poles is now symetrical, rather than being offset.
CHANGED - TCE's spherical mapping is now handles poles better (Dennis)
ADDED - Option (File->Settings->Files) to save subdivided geometry for OBJ files.
FIXED - 3DS exporter - objects with a blank name were ignored. Now given default name.
FIXED - TCE - resizing to zero in one or both dimensions left the selection misplaced
CHANGED - Mac - Command+Q (Control+Q other platforms) now calls exit rather than clearing selection
ADDED - Mac Command+shift+A (Control+shift+a other platforms) clears selection
FIXED - Mac - Command keys for select-all and undo/redo now work (were on Control key)
ADDED - Edit->Select-surfaces->connected
ADDED - x3d exporter (Rick Kimball)
FIXED - Mac - added a swap_buffers after xoring rubberbands to front buffer - fix for glDrawBuffer(GL_FRONT) problem under OS X 10.4.
CHANGED - resize cursor/poiner from tcross to cross (Mac was having redraw problems with non-naive cursor)
FIXED - mouse pointers for handles in TCE are now native on the Mac (non-native were causing graphics problems)
ADDED - private pref setting for Mac, intel Macs have the frontbuffer problem fixed by default
FIXED - Mac - View->New-View no longer need to be resized to force refresh
FIXED - Views->Reset-Views
CHANGED - Material dialog can now be left up
FIXED - edited material names are remembered
FIXED - Mac - balloon help refresh problem
FIXED - Mac Tk bug with mode parameter area not refreshing on a mode change.
